Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Alma Delia Castellanos-Leon, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' ("BIA") order denying her motion to reopen. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen, Singh v. Gonzales, 491 F.3d 1090, 1095 (9th Cir.2007), and we grant the petition for review.
The BIA abused its discretion in declining to equitably toll the filing deadline for Castellanos-Leon's untimely motion to reopen between "late-2007" and January 25, 2008, where sworn statements submitted in support of the motion indicate that Cas-tellanos-Leon did not definitively learn of her prior counsels' deficiencies until January 25, 2008. See id. at 1096.
PETITION FOR REVIEW GRANTED; REMANDED.
