                     On Petition for Review of an Order of the
                         Board of Immigration Appeals

                     Argued and Submitted September 3, 2015
                              Pasadena, California

Before: GRABER and WATFORD, Circuit Judges, and TUNHEIM,** Chief
District Judge.

      Ping Dong, a native and citizen of China, petitions for review of an order of

the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) denying her motion to reopen to present

evidence that she was forced to undergo two abortions in China in the 1980s.

             The Honorable John R. Tunheim, Chief District Judge for the U.S.
District Court for the District of Minnesota, sitting by designation.
                                                                            Page 2 of 4
      1. The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Dong’s untimely motion

to reopen for failure to present material, previously unavailable evidence of

changed country conditions. Evidence that Dong was subjected to forced abortions

in China in the 1980s was neither unavailable at the time of her March 2004 merits

hearing nor indicative of changed circumstances in China since then. See 8 U.S.C.

§ 1229a(c)(7)(C)(ii); 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3).

      2. Nor did the BIA abuse its discretion in finding that Dong failed to

demonstrate due diligence in raising her ineffective-assistance-of-counsel claim so

as to warrant equitable tolling of the time and numerical limitations on motions to

reopen. See Avagyan v. Holder, 646 F.3d 672, 679 (9th Cir. 2011). Dong argues

that all of her previous lawyers provided ineffective assistance by failing to present

evidence that she was subjected to forced abortions in China. She was aware,

however, that her lawyers had not raised a forced-abortion claim by the time of the

2004 merits hearing, at which she and her husband represented themselves, and she

did not raise such a claim for more than seven years thereafter. Nor has she

attempted to comply with the Lozada requirements in corroborating her allegations

that her previous attorneys rendered ineffective assistance by failing to raise this

claim. See Reyes v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 592, 597–99 (9th Cir. 2004); In re Lozada,

19 I. & N. Dec. 637, 639 (B.I.A. 1988).

      Dong argues that she failed to present evidence of her forced abortions

because she relied on the advice of an unknown “gentleman” at the immigration

consultant’s office. Even assuming this argument was properly exhausted before

the BIA, we cannot say that it was reasonable for Dong to rely on this advice, as

the man informed her that he was not an attorney and did not work at the office.

Nor can we say that she “made reasonable efforts to pursue relief,” Avagyan, 646

F.3d at 679, as she was aware that forced abortions could serve as grounds for

relief, but does not appear to have raised the issue with any of her attorneys for

more than twelve years afterwards.

      3. Dong moved in November 2009 for the BIA to reissue its June 2005

decision granting her voluntary departure so she could seek adjustment of status.

Dong argues that the BIA acted arbitrarily by refusing to reopen her case but

granting reopening in a factually somewhat similar case in the 1970s. We lack

jurisdiction to consider this argument. The BIA denied Dong’s November 2009

motion as untimely, holding that she failed to exercise diligence warranting

equitable tolling. Dong did not timely petition for review of that order, so we lack

jurisdiction to review it now. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1).

      4. Finally, we lack jurisdiction to review the BIA’s decision not to reopen

proceedings sua sponte. Go v. Holder, 744 F.3d 604, 609–10 (9th Cir. 2014).
