MEMORANDUM **

Rene Gonzalez-Molina, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions pro se for review of the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) denying his motion to reopen as untimely pursuant to 8 C.F.R. § 3.2 (c)(2). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen, Rodriguez-Lariz v. INS, 282 F.3d 1218, 1222 (9th Cir.2002), and we deny the petition.

Gonzalez-Molina filed his motion to reopen on the basis of subsequent events almost nine months after the 90 day fifing period set forth in 8 C.F.R. 3.2(c)(2). No *262 recognized exception to the 90-day time period is applicable. See Socop-Gonzalez v. INS, 272 F.3d 1176, 1184-5 (9th Cir. 2001) (en banc).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
