PER CURIAM:

      Iana     Rata,    a     native     and       citizen       of     Moldova,    and    her

husband, derivative beneficiary Ara A. Tiratsvyan, petition for

review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board)

denying    Rata’s      motion       to   reopen        as   untimely      and   numerically

barred.      We have reviewed the administrative record and Rata’s

claims, and conclude that the Board did not abuse its discretion

in   denying     her    motion.          See       8    C.F.R.        § 1003.2(a)      (2016);

Mosere v.     Mukasey,        
552 F.3d 397
,        400   (4th      Cir.    2009).      We

accordingly deny the petition for review for the reasons stated

by the Board.          See In re Rata (B.I.A. Feb. 22, 2016).                                We

dispense     with      oral     argument       because           the    facts    and      legal

contentions     are    adequately         presented         in    the    materials      before

this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.



                                                                           PETITION DENIED
