   MEMORANDUM

Subindu Barua, a native and citizen of Bangladesh, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reopen. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen. Toufighi v. Mukasey, 538 F.3d 988, 992 (9th Cir. 2007). We deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review.

The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Barua’s motion to reopen as untimely, where he filed the motion more than two years after his final administrative order of removal, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and failed to provide sufficient evidence of materially changed country conditions to invoke the exception to the filing deadline, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3)(ii); Toufighi, 538 F.3d at 996 (setting forth requirements for prevailing on a motion to reopen based on changed country conditions).

Barua’s contentions that the BIA ignored evidence and misstated evidentiary standards are not supported by the record.

We lack jurisdiction to consider Bar rua’s challenge to the BIA’s 2011 dismissal of his direct appeal because this petition is not timely as to that order. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1); see also Stone v. I.N.S., 514 U.S. 386, 405, 115 S.Ct. 1537, 131 L.Ed.2d 465 (1995).

Respondent’s motion to take judicial notice of filings made in petitioner’s prior petition for review to this court (Docket Entry No. 16) is denied as unnecessary.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; DISMISSED in part.
