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

Submitted November 13, 2012 **

Domingo Rogelio Ayala-Ortiz, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions

R. 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen.
