   MEMORANDUM

Balraj Singh, a native and citizen of India, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reconsider its prior order denying reopening based on ineffective assistance of counsel. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reconsider. Mohammed v. Gonzales, 400 F.3d 785, 790 (9th Cir.2005). We deny the petition for review.

The BIA was within its discretion in denying Singh’s motion to reconsider because the motion failed to identify any error of fact or law in the BIA’s June 23, 2006, decision denying reopening. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(b)(1).

Singh’s remaining contention is unpersuasive.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
