ERIC H. HOLDER, Jr., Attorney General,

               Respondent.

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

                             Submitted June 15, 2011 **

Before:        CANBY, O’SCANNLAIN, and FISHER, Circuit Judges.

       Cenobio Evaristo Santiago-Santiago, a native and citizen of Mexico,

petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his

appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying his motion to reopen. We

without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We deny the petition for review.

      In his opening brief, Santiago-Santiago fails to address, and therefore has

waived any challenge to, the agency’s dispositive determination that the motion to

reopen was untimely filed. See Martinez-Serrano v. INS, 94 F.3d 1256, 1259-60

(9th Cir. 1996) (issues not specifically raised and argued in a party’s opening brief

are waived); 8 C.F.R. § 1003.23(b)(1).

      PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
