ERIC H. HOLDER, Jr., Attorney General,

               Respondent.

                      On Petition for Review of an Order of the
                          Board of Immigration Appeals

                              Submitted May 14, 2013 **

Before:        LEAVY, THOMAS, and MURGUIA, Circuit Judges.

       Hendarsin Jahja and Thio Pie Tjiauw, natives and citizens of Indonesia,

petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying

except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.

their motion to reconsider. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We

deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review.

         In their opening brief, petitioners fail to address, and therefore have waived,

any challenge to the BIA’s order denying their motion to reconsider. See Lopez-

Vasquez v. Holder, 706 F.3d 1072, 1079-80 (9th Cir. 2013). Moreover, the BIA

did not abuse its discretion in denying petitioners’ motion to reconsider where the

motion failed to identify any error of fact or law in the BIA’s prior decision

dismissing petitioners’ appeal. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(b)(1); Socop-Gonzalez v.

INS, 272 F.3d 1176, 1180 n.2 (9th Cir. 2001) (en banc).

         We lack jurisdiction to review any challenge to the BIA’s prior order

dismissing petitioners’ appeal because the petition for review is not timely as to

that order. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1); Singh v. INS, 315 F.3d 1186, 1188 (9th Cir.

2003).

         PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; DISMISSED in part.
