PER CURIAM:

              Godefroy     Youssa      Tcheufa,       a    native       and     citizen   of

Cameroon,     petitions       for    review    of     an    order    of    the    Board    of

Immigration      Appeals      (Board)    denying          his    motion    to    reopen    as

untimely.        We    have     reviewed       the    administrative            record    and

Tcheufa’s claims and find no abuse of discretion in the denial

of   relief     on   Tcheufa’s       motion.        See    8    C.F.R.    § 1003.2(c)(2)

(2010).       We accordingly deny the petition for review for the

reasons stated by the Board.             See In re: Tcheufa (B.I.A. Dec. 8,

2009).     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
