MEMORANDUM***
Yolanda Rodriguez Arteaga, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions pro se for review of a Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying her motion to reconsider the denial of her application for cancellation of removal. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review the denial of a motion for reconsideration for abuse of discretion, Cano-Merida v. INS, 311 F.3d 960, 964 (9th Cir.2002), and we deny the petition.
Although Rodriguez Arteaga’s petition addresses the merits of the BIA’s order denying cancellation of removal rather than its reconsideration order, we have jurisdiction to review only the reconsideration order because Rodriguez Arteaga did not timely petition this court for review of the order denying cancellation of removal. See Martinez-Serrano v. INS, 94 F.3d 1256, 1258 (9th Cir.1996).
Rodriguez Arteaga has waived any challenge to the order denying reconsideration by failing to address it in her petition to this court. See id. at 1259-60. However, we note that, because Rodriguez Arteaga failed to identify any factual or legal errors in the BIA’s prior decision, as required by 8 C.F.R. § 3.2(b)(1) (2002), the BIA’s denial of reconsideration was not “arbitrary, irrational, or contrary to law.” See Carancho v. INS, 68 F.3d 356, 360 (9th Cir.1995). Accordingly, the BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion for reconsideration. See id.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
