PER CURIAM:

           Abraham    Lalawi,    a   native   and   citizen      of   Indonesia,

seeks review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals

(Board) denying his motion to reopen.               We have reviewed the

administrative record and Lalawi’s claims and find no abuse of

discretion in the Board’s decision declining to reopen removal

proceedings.      See    8    C.F.R.    § 1003.2(a),      (c)    (2008).      We

accordingly deny the petition for review for the reasons stated

by the Board.        See In re: Lalawi (B.I.A. May 9, 2008).                   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
