Before BENTON, BOWMAN, and GRASZ, Circuit Judges.
                         ____________

PER CURIAM.

      Kenyan citizen Esnath Ochweri petitions for review of an order of the Board
of Immigration Appeals (BIA) dismissing her appeal from a decision in which an
immigration judge denied her motion to reopen. After careful review, we conclude
the BIA’s denial was not an abuse of discretion. See Averianova v. Holder, 592 F.3d
931, 936-37 (8th Cir. 2010) (discussing the standard of review for motions to reopen);
8 U.S.C. § 1229a(c)(7)(C)(i), (ii). Accordingly, the petition is denied. See 8th Cir.
R. 47B.
