   MEMORANDUM

Lorenzo Flores-Cervantes and Laura Miranda-Adame, natives and citizens of Mexico, petition pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing their appeal from an immigration judge’s order denying their motion to reopen due to ineffective assistance of counsel. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the agency’s denial of a motion to reopen. Iturribarria v. INS, 321 F.3d 889, 894 (9th Cir.2003). We deny the petition for review.

The agency did not abuse its discretion in denying petitioners’ third motion to reopen as time- and number-barred, see 8 U.S.C § 1229a(b)(5)(C), (c)(7)(A), where petitioners failed to explain before the agency how they were prevented from raising their ineffective assistance claims in their first motion to reopen, see Iturribarria, 321 F.3d at 897 (equitable tolling of deadlines and numerical limits is recognized “when a petitioner is prevented from filing because of deception, fraud, or error”).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED. 
      
       This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
