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

                             Submitted February 15, 2011 **

Before:        CANBY, FERNANDEZ, and M. SMITH, Circuit Judges.

       Assaf Mouhanna, a native and citizen of Lebanon, petitions for review of the

             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
denial of a motion to reconsider, Mohammed v. Gonzales, 400 F.3d 785, 791 (9th

Cir. 2005). We deny the petition for review.

      The BIA acted within its discretion in denying Mouhanna’s motion to

reconsider because the motion failed to identify any error of fact or law in the

BIA’s prior order. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(b)(1).

      PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
