Before WOLLMAN, MELLOY, and GRUENDER, Circuit Judges.
                         ___________

PER CURIAM.

      Guatemalan citizen Maynor Valiente-Zapet petitions for review of an order of
the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) denying his May 2009 motion to reopen and
reconsider a prior decision. After careful review, we conclude that the BIA acted
within its discretion. See Alanwoko v. Mukasey, 538 F.3d 908, 914 (8th Cir. 2008);
Esenwah v. Ashcroft, 378 F.3d 763, 765 (8th Cir. 2004); Raffington v. INS, 340 F.3d
720, 721, 724 (8th Cir. 2003).

      Accordingly, we deny the petition for review.
