    Before MOTZ, GREGORY, and SHEDD, Circuit Judges.
    Petition denied by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.
   PER CURIAM:

Chaltu Assefa Wakene, a native and citizen of Ethiopia, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“Board”). The order denied her motion to reopen the Board’s dismissal of her appeal from the immigration judge’s order denying her applications for asylum and withholding of removal. We have reviewed the administrative record and the Board’s order and find that the Board did not abuse its discretion in denying Wakene’s motion to reopen. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(a) (2003); INS v. Doherty, 502 U.S. 314, 323-24, 112 S.Ct. 719, 116 L.Ed.2d 823 (1992). Accordingly, we deny the petition for review on the reasoning of the Board. See In re: Wakene, No. [ AXXXXX-XXX ] (B.I.A. June 4, 2002). 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.
