Sonzeu

MEMORANDUM **

Vigny Sonzeu, a native and citizen of Cameroon, petitions for review of the *965 Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reopen removal proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen, Perez v. Mukasey, 516 F.3d 770, 773 (9th Cir.2008). We deny the petition for review.

The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Sonzeu’s motion to reopen as untimely because it was filed almost three years after the BIA issued its final orders and Sonzeu failed to demonstrate changed circumstances in Cameroon. See 8 C.F.R. §§ 1003.2 (c)(2),(c)(3)(ii); see also Malty v. Ashcroft, 381 F.3d 942, 945 (9th Cir.2004) (“The critical question is ... whether circumstances have changed sufficiently that a petitioner who previously did not have a legitimate claim for asylum now has a well-founded fear of future persecution.”).

Sonzeu’s contention that the BIA failed to consider the evidence submitted with the motion to reopen is unavailing because he has not overcome the presumption that the BIA did review the record, see Fernandez v. Gonzales, 439 F.3d 592, 603 (9th Cir.2006)…
