PER CURIAM:

      Marta Ortiz Gomez, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions for review of an

order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) dismissing her appeal from the

immigration judge’s denial of her requests for asylum, withholding of removal, and

protection under the Convention Against Torture. We have thoroughly reviewed the

record, including the transcript of Ortiz Gomez’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.

In re Ortiz Gomez (B.I.A. Apr. 14, 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
