On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals

Submitted June 2, 2022**

Before: SILVERMAN, KOH, and SANCHEZ, Circuit Judges.

Mynor Rolando Melgar-Lopez, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions

for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his

motion to reopen removal proceedings.1 Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C.

See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). 1 Melgar-Lopez does not challenge the BIA’s denial of his motion for termination. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen. Cano-
