   MEMORANDUM

Lenou Phrasavath, a native and citizen of Laos, petitions for review of an order by the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) denying as untimely his motion to reopen for the purpose of seeking adjustment of status. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252, and deny the petition for review.

Reviewing de novo, see Fernandez v. Gonzales, 439 F.3d 592, 603 (9th Cir.2006), we reject Phrasavath’s contention that his due process rights were violated by the BIA’s decision. Phrasavath has offered no explanation for why his motion to reopen was not filed until January 21, 2004, more than a year after the BIA’s dismissal of his appeal. None of the pertinent supporting evidence submitted with the motion to reopen was unavailable prior to the BIA’s December 23, 2002 decision. The BIA therefore properly applied the filing deadline of 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2) to deny Phrasavath’s motion to reopen.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
