Opinion

MEMORANDUM

Gilberto G. Rossaty, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions pro se for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) denying his motion to reopen removal proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . Reviewing for abuse of discretion the BIA’s denial of a motion to reopen, He v. Gonzales, 501 F.3d 1128, 1130 (9th Cir.2007), we deny the petition for review.

The BIA did not abuse its discretion by denying Rossaty’s motion to reopen as untimely and number barred, where Rossaty filed his motion approximately four years after his order of removal became administratively final, had filed at least seven pri- or motions to reopen, and did not demonstrate the applicability of any exception to the time and numerical limitations on motions to reopen. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229a(c)(7)(A), (C)(1); 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2 (c)(2).

We decline to treat the Attorney General’s invitation to strike Rossaty’s opening brief as a motion to strike. See United States v. Rowe, 96 F.3d 1294 , 1298 n. 2 (9th Cir.1996).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
