Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Rivas-Garcia petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' (Board) decision denying her requests for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture (CAT), and the Board's subsequent denial of her motion to reopen. We deny her petition for review.
Substantial evidence supports the Board's conclusion that Rivas-Garcia failed to demonstrate past persecution or a well-founded fear of future persecution. See INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478, 481 & n. 1, 112 S.Ct. 812, 117 L.Ed.2d 38 (1992). Rivas-Garcia never challenged the Board's conclusion that she failed to establish past persecution and admits that the single incident she suffered in El Salvador did not amount to persecution. Because Rivas-Garcia failed to establish past persecution or to present "credible, direct, and specific evidence in the record of facts that would support a reasonable fear of persecution," Pedro-Mateo v. INS, 224 F.3d 1147, 1150 (9th Cir.2000) (internal quotation marks omitted), she has not presented evidence that would compel reversal of the Board's determination that she has no well-founded fear of future persecution and is therefore ineligible for asylum, withholding of removal, or CAT relief.
The Board did not abuse its discretion when it denied Rivas-Garcia's motion to reopen. See Ontiveros-Lopez v. INS, 213 F.3d 1121, 1124 (9th Cir.2000). The evidence Rivas-Garcia presented in her motion to reopen did not demonstrate prima facie eligibility for relief because the generic evidence did not "reveal[] a reasonable likelihood that the statutory requirements for relief have been satisfied." Ordonez v. INS, 345 F.3d 777, 785 (9th Cir.2003).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
