MOTION ON BEHALF OF RESPONDENT: ON BEHALF OF DHS: Pro se Rebecca A Hollaway Assistant Chief Counsel APPLICATION: Reopening; reconsideration
The Board entered the final administrative order of removal in this case on November 23, 2010, when it dismissed the respondent's appeal from the Immigration Judge's July 21, 2010, decision denying his motion to terminate the proceedings. 1 On July 21, 2011, the respondent filed the instant motion with the Board. The Department of Homeland Security opposes this motion. Whether construed as a motion to reopen or as a motion to reconsider, the respondent's motion is untimely. sections 240(c)(6)(B), (C)(i) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C.
§§ 1229a(c)(6)(B), (C)(i); 8 C.F.R §§ 1003.2(b)(2), (c)(2). The motion will be denied.
The respondent has not addressed the issue of the untimeliness of this motion, and it does not appear that any exception to the filing deadlines applies to this case. See generally 8 C.F.R § 1003.2(c)(3). Further, for the reason stated below, we are not persuaded either to reopen the proceedings or to reconsider a prior Board order sua sponte. in exceptional situations); 8 C.F.R § 1003.2(a). The respondent, who was residing in the United. States as a lawful permanent resident while under the age of 18, claims to have automatically acquired United States citizenship under former section 321(a)(3) of the Act, 8 U.S.C. § 8 U.S.C. § 1432(a)(3), upon his mother's becoming a naturalized citizen when he was 16 years old. The only issue before the Immigration Court was whether the respondent's parents were legally separated and the respondent was in his mother's sole custody at the time of her naturalization. The Immigration Judge determined that the respondent had not satisfied his burden because the record reflects not only that the respondent's parents divorced on

May 23, 1988, but also that the divorce was vacated on May 24, 1988, i.e., prior to his mother's naturalization. The Immigration Judge and the Board rejected the respondent's assertion that a handwritten notation of unknown authorship which appeared on the judgment ofdivorce, and which stated that the order to vacate the judgment of divorce, filed on May 24, 1988, was entered on November 30, 2009, establishes that his parents were in fact divorced at the time of his mother's naturalization. With the instant motion, the respondent has offered a copy of a document bearing the letterhead of The County Clerk and Clerk of the Supreme Court, New York County Court House, dated November 30, 2009, and signed by an individual of unknown capacity, stating that pursuant to an order filed on May 24, 1988, the judgement of divorce filed on May 23, 1988, was vacated on November 30, 2009. We find that the inclusion of this document in the record would not alter the conclusion, based on the Immigration Judge's analysis of New York State law, that "the Court's determination vacating the judgment of divorce controls regardless of when the clerk of (the) court enters the judgment."

Accordingly, the respondent's untimely motion to reopen and reconsider will be denied. ORDER: The motion to reopen and reconsider is denied.
