from Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s determination that he had breached
his immigration delivery bond, and the district court’s decision declining to disturb
the grant of summary judgment on reconsideration. We have jurisdiction under 28
U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a district court’s grant of a motion for summary
judgment and review for abuse of discretion a motion for reconsideration. Smith v.
Clark Cty. Sch. Dist., 727 F.3d 950, 954 (9th Cir. 2013). We affirm.
The district court properly granted summary judgment, where Nyuwa failed
to raise a genuine dispute of material fact regarding the determination that he had
breached his bond. The bond agreement was conditioned upon Nyuwa’s
appearance “upon each and every written request,” a written request for his
presence was made, and he failed to appear when and where requested. See 8
C.F.R. § 103.6(e) (“A bond is breached when there has been a substantial violation
of the stipulated conditions.”); accord Ruiz-Rivera v. Moyer, 70 F.3d 498, 501 (7th
Cir. 1995) (the primary objective of a delivery bond is to produce the alien
whenever and wherever requested by the agency). Accordingly, the district court
did not abuse its discretion in declining to disturb its decision on reconsideration.
AFFIRMED.
