PER CURIAM:

            Ju Lin, a native and citizen of China, petitions for

review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board)

dismissing    his   appeal   from     the   Immigration   Judge’s     decision

denying Lin’s motion to reopen and reconsider.             We have reviewed

the administrative record and find no abuse of discretion in the

denial of relief on Lin’s motion.             See 8 C.F.R. §§ 1003.2(a),

1003.23(b)(1)   (2008).       We     accordingly   deny   the   petition    for

review for the reasons stated by the Board.                See In re: Lin,

(B.I.A. May 9, 2008).         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
