Harjinder Singh, a native and citizen of India, petitions for review of the
Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reopen

abuse of discretion the BIA’s denial of a motion to reopen. Najmabadi v. Holder,

2 14-73793
597 F.3d 983, 986 (9th Cir. 2010). We deny the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion by denying Singh’s motion to reopen
where it was untimely and number-barred, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and where
Singh failed to establish materially changed circumstances in India to qualify for
the regulatory exception to the time and number limitations for motions to reopen,
see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3)(ii); Toufighi v. Mukasey, 538 F.3d 988, 992 (9th Cir.
2008) (evidence immaterial in light of prior adverse credibility determination).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
