MEMORANDUM **

Gurjeet Singh, a native and citizen of India, petitions for review of the Board of *793 Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reopen to apply for adjustment of status.

Ashcroft, 374 F.3d 759, 761 (9th Cir.2004), and we deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review.

The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Singh’s motion to reopen as untimely because Singh filed it more than one year after the final administrative decision. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2 (c)(2) (generally requiring that a motion to reopen be filed within 90 days after a final decision is rendered).

Singh’s remaining contentions lack merit.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part and DISMISSED in part.
