   Petition denied by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Serge Guy Belinga, a native and citizen of Cameroon, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“Board”) denying his motion to reopen. We have reviewed the record and the Board’s order and find no abuse of discretion. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(a) (2009). Accordingly, we deny the petition for review substantially for the reasons stated by the Board. In re: Belinga (B.I.A. Feb. 10, 2009). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

PETITION DENIED. 
      
       We note that the Board relied on the Attorney General's decision in Matter of Compean, 24 I. & N. Dec. 710 (BIA Jan. 7, 2009) ("Compean I "). In Matter of Compean, 25 I. & N. Dec. 1 (BIA June 3, 2009) ("Compean II"), however, the Attorney General vacated Compean I and directed the Board and immigration judges to apply "pre-Compean standards to all pending and future motions to reopen based upon ineffective assistance of counsel, regardless of when such motions were filed.” Id. at *3. Accordingly, we find that the case is governed by Matter of Lozada, 19 I. & N. Dec. 637 (B.I.A.1988). See Chedid v. Holder, 573 F.3d 33, 36 n. 4 (1st Cir.2009). Because both decisions require an alien to show that he has been prejudiced by counsel's ineffective or deficient performance, any resulting error was harmless.
