PER CURIAM:

     Carlos Roberto Membreno-Rivera, a native and citizen of El

Salvador,     petitions      for    review       of    an   order      of    the    Board    of

Immigration     Appeals      (“Board”)       dismissing       his       appeal      from    the

immigration     judge’s           denial    of        his   requests          for     asylum,

withholding     of    removal,       and   protection         under         the    Convention

Against   Torture.           We    have    thoroughly        reviewed         the    record,

including the transcript of Membreno-Rivera’s merits hearing and

all supporting evidence.              We conclude that the record evidence

does not compel a ruling contrary to any of the administrative

factual findings, see 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(4)(B) (2012), and that

substantial evidence supports the Board’s decision.                               See INS v.

Elias–Zacarias, 
502 U.S. 478
, 481 (1992).

     Accordingly,       we    deny     the       petition        for    review      for     the

reasons stated by the Board.               See In re: Membreno-Rivera (B.I.A.

Sept. 18, 2014).          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
