PER CURIAM:

           Shahbaz Butt, a native and citizen of Pakistan, petitions

for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board)

adopting and affirming the Immigration Judge’s denial of his

application for adjustment of status.         We have reviewed Butt’s

claims in the context of the record and find that substantial

evidence   supports   the   finding   that   Butt    is   ineligible   for

adjustment of status.*      Accordingly, we deny the petition for

review for the reasons stated by the Board.         See In re: Butt, No.

A79-242-484 (B.I.A. Aug. 4, 2006).       We dispense with oral argument

because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in

the materials before the court and argument would not aid the

decisional process.

                                                          PETITION DENIED

     *
      We lack jurisdiction to review Butt’s challenge to the
Immigration Judge’s alternative finding denying adjustment of
status as a matter of discretion. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(B)(i)
(2000).
