597 F.3d 983, 986 (9th Cir. 2010). We deny the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in 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 limitations for motions to reopen, see 8 C.F.R.
§ 1003.2(c)(3); Najmabadi, 597 F.3d at 991-92 (BIA did not abuse its discretion
where petitioner failed to introduce material evidence).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
