PER CURIAM:

          Guan En Ye, a native and citizen of the People’s Republic

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

Immigration Appeals (“Board”) denying to sua sponte reopen his

removal proceedings.   We lack jurisdiction to review the Board’s

discretionary authority to sua sponte reopen proceedings.      See

Tamenut v. Mukasey, 521 F.3d 1000, 1004 (8th Cir. 2008) (collecting

cases).   We deny the petition for review.   We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately

presented in the materials before the court and argument would not

aid the decisional process.

                                                   PETITION DENIED
