MEMORANDUM **
This is a petition for review of the Board of Immigrations Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying petitioner’s motion to reopen.
We review the BIA’s denial of a motion to reopen for abuse of discretion. See Cano-Merida v. INS, 311 F.3d 960, 964 (9th Cir.2002). The regulations state that a motion to reopen removal proceedings must be filed no later than ninety days after the date on which the final administrative decision was rendered in the proceeding sought to be reopened. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2 (c)(2). A review of the administrative record demonstrates that the BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying petitioner’s motion to reopen as untimely. Petitioner’s final administrative order of removal was entered on September 29, 2006. Petitioner’s motion to reopen was filed on May 4, 2007, more than ninety days after the date on which the final order of removal was entered. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2 (c)(2).
Accordingly, the petition for review is denied in part because the questions raised by this petition for review are so insubstantial as not to require further argument. See United States v. Hooton, 693 F.2d 857, 858 (9th Cir.1982) (per curiam).
