PER CURIAM:

     Appellant seeks review of the Board of Immigration Appeals'

decision and order affirming the immigration judge's denial of

Appellant's motion to reopen her deportation proceedings and to

stay deportation pursuant to 8 C.F.R. § 242.22 (1995). Our review

of the record discloses that the Board's decision is based on sub-
stantial evidence and is without reversible error. Accordingly, we

affirm on the reasoning of the Board. Joseph v. INS, No. A29-692-
530 (B.I.A. June 11, 1996). We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.




                                                          AFFIRMED
