the agency’s factual findings. Zehatye v. Gonzales, 453 F.3d 1182, 1184-85 (9th
Cir. 2006). We deny the petition for review.
The record does not compel the conclusion that Becerra-Amezquita
established changed circumstances to excuse his untimely asylum application. See
8 U.S.C. § 1158(a)(2)(D); 8 C.F.R. § 1208.4(a)(4); Ramadan v. Gonzales, 479 F.3d
646, 657 (9th Cir. 2007). We reject as unsupported by the record Becerra-
Amezquita’s contentions that the agency violated his right to due process or
otherwise erred in its analysis of his claims.
To the extent Becerra-Amezquita requests judicial notice of materials
referenced in his opening brief, we deny the request. See Fisher v. INS, 79 F.3d
955, 963-64 (9th Cir. 1996) (en banc).
The temporary stay of removal remains in place until issuance of the
mandate.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
