PER CURIAM:

            Pedro Jose Monroy Clavijo petitions this court for review

of a decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) affirming

the immigration judge’s ruling finding him removable and denying

asylum relief.     The Board’s order was entered on May 20, 2005.

Monroy Clavijo’s petition for review was filed with this court on

June 22, 2005, thirty-two days later.

            Pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1) (2000), Monroy Clavijo

had thirty days from the date of the Board’s final order, or until

June 20, 2005, to file a timely petition for review.                This time

period is “jurisdictional in nature and must be construed with

strict fidelity to [its] terms.”       Stone v. INS, 514 U.S. 386, 405

(1995).   It is “not subject to equitable tolling.”         Id.     As Monroy

Clavijo’s   petition   for   review   was   not   timely   filed,    we   lack

jurisdiction to review his claim.

            Accordingly, we dismiss the petition for review for lack

of jurisdiction.   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.



                                                                    DISMISSED
