MEMORANDUM **
Jesus Sarmiento-Hernandez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) decision summarily affirming without opinion an immigration judge’s order denying his motion to reopen proceedings in which he was ordered removed in absentia. We lack jurisdiction because the petition for review was untimely and therefore dismiss the petition.
The BIA’s decision was issued on July 19, 2004. This court received Sarmiento-Hernandez’s petition for review on August 19, 2004, thirty-one days later. 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1) states: “The petition for review must be filed not later than 30 days after the date of the final order of removal.” Sarmiento-Hernandez’s petition should therefore have been received no later than August 18, 2004. See Sheviakov v. INS, 237 F.3d 1144, 1148 (9th Cir.2001).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
