Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

             Tajinder Singh, a native and citizen of India, petitions

for   review     of   an   order    of   the    Board   of    Immigration     Appeals

(“Board”)      denying     as     untimely     his   motion    to    reopen   removal

proceedings.      We have reviewed the administrative record and find

no abuse of discretion in the Board’s order.                           See 8 C.F.R.

§ 1003.2(a) (2007) (“The decision to grant or deny a motion to

reopen . . . is within the discretion of the Board . . . .”);

Barry v. Gonzales, 
445 F.3d 741
, 744 (4th Cir. 2006) (stating abuse

of discretion standard), cert. denied, 
127 S. Ct. 1147
 (2007).                       We

therefore deny the petition for review for the reasons stated by

the Board.     See In re: Singh, No. A73-570-136 (B.I.A. May 8, 2007).

We    dispense    with     oral    argument     because      the    facts   and   legal

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.



                                                                     PETITION DENIED
