PER CURIAM:

          Ulisses M. Bastos, a native and citizen of Brazil,

petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration

Appeals (“Board”) denying his motion to reopen and remand to the

immigration   judge   to   apply    for    asylum   based    upon   changed

circumstances.   We have reviewed the administrative record and the

Board’s order and find that the Board did not abuse its discretion.

See INS v. Doherty, 502 U.S. 314, 323-24 (1992).            Accordingly, we

deny the petition for review.         We dispense with oral argument

because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in

the materials before the court and argument would not aid the

decisional process.

                                                        PETITION DENIED
