1        UPON DUE CONSIDERATION of this petition for review of a

2    Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) decision, it is hereby

3    ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED that the petition for review is

4    DENIED.

5        Petitioner Partha Saha, a native and citizen of Bangladesh,

6    seeks review of a June 9, 2015, decision of the BIA affirming

7    an Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) August 18, 2014, denial of his

8    motion to reopen.     In re Partha Saha, No. A045 050 928 (B.I.A.

9    June 9, 2015), aff’g No. A045 050 928 (Immigr. Ct. Batavia Aug.

10   18, 2014).     We assume the parties’ familiarity with the

11   underlying facts and procedural history in this case.

12       Under the circumstances of this case, we have reviewed the

13   IJ’s decision as supplemented by the BIA.            See Yan Chen v.

14   Gonzales, 417 F.3d 268, 271 (2d Cir. 2005).             We review the

15   denial of a motion to reopen for abuse of discretion.          Ali v.

16   Gonzales,    448   F.3d   515,   517   (2d   Cir.   2006).   We   lack

17   jurisdiction, however, to review a final order of removal,

18   including an order denying a motion to reopen, against an alien,

19   such as Saha, who is removable by reason of having committed

20   an aggravated felony or a controlled substance offense; we

21   retain jurisdiction to consider constitutional claims and

22   questions of law.     See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(C), (D); Durant

23   v. U.S. INS, 393 F.3d 113, 115 (2d Cir. 2005).
                                        2
1          The petition is denied because the agency did not abuse its

2    discretion by denying Saha’s motion to reopen as untimely and

3    Saha has not identified any constitutional decision.                Saha’s

4    2014 motion to reopen was untimely because it was filed more

5    than 90 days after the IJ’s 2010 decision, which was the final

6    administrative order.          8 U.S.C. § 1229a(c)(7)(C)(i).        There

7    are exceptions to this time limit if an alien can demonstrate

8    ineffective assistance of counsel and due diligence in seeking

9    to reopen on that basis, see Iavorski v. U.S. INS, 232 F.3d 124,

10   135 (2d Cir. 2000), or if an alien can show that conditions in

11   his country of removal have materially changed so as to render

12   him    prima     facie   eligible       for   asylum,    see    8   U.S.C.

13   § 1229a(c)(7)(C)(ii).

14         Although Saha raised both of these exceptions before the

15   agency, he raises only changed country conditions in his brief

16   to this Court.      However, his argument is brief and points to

17   no    evidence   that    the   agency    overlooked     or   misconstrued.

18   Accordingly, he has not identified any reviewable challenge to

19   the BIA’s country conditions determination, but instead “merely

20   quarrels over the correctness of the factual findings . . . .”

21   Xiao Ji Chen v. U.S. Dep’t of Justice, 471 F.3d 315, 329 (2d

22   Cir. 2006).      Additionally, Saha’s argument that his son will

23   suffer harm if he (Saha) is removed is not properly before us
                                          3
1    because it was not raised before the BIA.   See Lin Zhong v. U.S.

2    Dep’t of Justice, 480 F.3d 104, 122 (2d Cir. 2007).

3        Finally, as the Government argues, we lack jurisdiction

4    over any exercise of prosecutorial discretion.         8 U.S.C.

5    § 1252(a), (g) (“[N]o court shall have jurisdiction to hear any

6    cause or claim . . . arising from the decision or action by the

7    Attorney General to commence proceedings, adjudicate cases, or

8    execute removal orders against any alien under this chapter.”).

9        For the foregoing reasons, the petition for review is

10   DENIED.    As we have completed our review, any stay of removal

11   that the Court previously granted in this petition is VACATED,

12   and any pending motion for a stay of removal in this petition

13   is DISMISSED as moot.    Any pending request for oral argument

14   in this petition is DENIED in accordance with Federal Rule of

15   Appellate Procedure 34(a)(2), and Second Circuit Local Rule

16   34.1(b).

17                                 FOR THE COURT:
18                                 Catherine O’Hagan Wolfe, Clerk
