On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Jean Murat Montrevil, a native and citizen of Haiti, petitions for review of the Board
of Immigration Appeals’ amended order denying his motion to reopen. Montrevil’s motion
was untimely filed and number-barred, and the Board declined to exercise its sua sponte
authority to reopen his proceedings.
We lack jurisdiction to review how the Board exercises its sua sponte discretion.
See Lawrence v. Lynch,
826 F.3d 198, 206-07 (4th Cir. 2016); Mosere v. Mukasey,
552
F.3d 397, 400-01 (4th Cir. 2009). Additionally, as we have previously determined, see
Montrevil v. Gonzales, 343 F. App’x 861 (4th Cir. 2009), we lack jurisdiction to consider
Montrevil’s petition for review absent a colorable constitutional claim or question of law,
see 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(C), (D) (2012). Because we are barred from reviewing
Montrevil’s challenges to the Board’s denial of his motion for sua sponte reopening and
Montrevil fails to raise any independent colorable constitutional claims or questions of law
under § 1252(a)(2)(D), we find ourselves without jurisdiction and therefore dismiss the
petition for review. We deny Montrevil’s motion to file a supplemental appendix and deny
the pending motion for stay as moot. 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 DISMISSED
