   MEMORANDUM

Ramiro Hernandez-Beltran, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reopen removal proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. Reviewing for abuse of discretion, Lara-Torres v. Ashcroft, 383 F.3d 968, 972 (9th Cir.2004), amended by 404 F.3d 1105 (9th Cir.2005), we deny the petition for review.

The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Hernandez-Beltran’s motion as untimely where the motion was filed more than 18 months after the BIA’s final administrative order. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
