PER CURIAM.
Violet Mmbone Ashihundu, a native and citizen of Kenya, seeks review of an opinion and order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) dismissing her appeal and affirming the decision of the immigration judge (IJ) denying a motion to reopen her deportation proceedings. The IJ ordered Ashihundu deported in absentia after she failed to appear for her deportation hearing. We review the order of the Board pursuant to 8 U.S.C.A. § 1229a(b)(5)(D); § 1252(b)(6)(West 1999). Our review of the record discloses that the IJ and the Board applied the correct standard in assessing Ashihundu’s case, and the decision to deny the motion to reopen was not an abuse of discretion. Other arguments Ashihundu raises before the court are without merit. Accordingly, we deny the petition for review. 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.
