   SUMMARY ORDER

Xin Li, a native and citizen of the People’s Republic of China, appeals from the BIA’s September 12, 2007, denial of his motion for reconsideration of a prior order. See In re Xin Li, [ AXX XXX XXX ]. That prior order, issued on May 21, 1996, affirmed the Immigration Judge’s September 28, 1995, decision denying Li’s petitions for asylum, withholding of deportation, and voluntary departure. We assume the parties’ and counsel’s familiarity with the facts and procedural history of this case, and the issues presented on this appeal.

On appeal, Li argues that the BIA erred in declining to consider whether certain documents demonstrated changed circumstances arising in China that would excuse Li’s otherwise untimely motion to reopen. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3)(ii). These documents, discussed in greater detail in Shou Yung Guo v. Gonzales, 463 F.3d 109 (2d Cir.2006), and referred to as the “Guo documents,” were not introduced by Li in evidence in support of his motion to reopen, but were mentioned in his papers.

The BIA has already considered the Guo documents on remand in Guo and concluded that they were insufficient to demonstrate the requisite changed country circumstances to justify a motion to reopen. In re S-Y-G-, 24 I. & N. Dec. 247 (B.I.A. August 2, 2007). We affirmed in Shao v. Mukasey, 546 F.3d 138, 142 (2d Cir.2008).

Because the Guo documents are insufficient to demonstrate changed country circumstances in Guo’s case, see Shao, 546 F.3d 138, a fortiori, they are insufficient to justify a motion to reopen here.

Li also requests that this Court stay its mandate and the BIA’s order of removal to allow him to move a second time to reopen his case. But Li appears to seek a stay only to introduce the Guo documents into evidence in this proceeding. As discussed, such documents are insufficient to demonstrate changed country circumstances. See Shao, 546 F.3d at 174. Li points to no other evidence that he would introduce in support of such a motion. Under these circumstances staying the mandate would be inappropriate.

For the foregoing reasons, we hereby DENY Li’s petition for review and DENY his motion for a stay.
