PER CURIAM:

       Bashkim Bajraktari, a native and citizen of Albania, petitions for review of an

order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) denying his motion to reopen.

We have thoroughly reviewed the administrative record and Bajraktari’s claims on appeal

and conclude that the Board did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion.

See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(a), (c) (2018); Mosere v. Mukasey, 

, 400 (4th Cir.

2009); see also Prasad v. Holder, 

, 228 (4th Cir. 2015) (reaffirming that the

Board may deny a motion to reopen “solely on the ground that [the alien] has not

established prima facie eligibility for” the relief he seeks). We therefore deny the petition

for review for the reasons stated by the Board. See In re Bajraktari (B.I.A. Dec. 20,

2017). 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
