Before WOLLMAN, MELLOY and GRUENDER, Circuit Judges.
                         ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Mauritanian citizen Sokhna Kane petitions for review of an order of the Board
of Immigration Appeals (BIA) that affirmed an immigration judge’s denial of her
motion to reopen. After careful review, we conclude that the BIA acted within its
discretion. See Clifton v. Holder, 598 F.3d 486, 490-91 (8th Cir. 2010) (standard of
review); Tamenut v. Mukasey, 521 F.3d 1000, 1001, 1004-05 (8th Cir. 2008) (en
banc) (per curiam) (reopening sua sponte); Ghasemimehr v. Gonzales, 427 F.3d 1160,
1162 (8th Cir. 2005) (per curiam) (untimeliness); Hernandez-Moran v. Gonzales, 408
F.3d 496, 499-500 (8th Cir. 2005) (equitable tolling). Accordingly, we deny the
petition for review.
