MEMORANDUM

Simon Karapetyan, a native of the former Soviet Union and citizen of Armenia, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reconsider. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for an abuse of discretion the BIA’s denial of a motion to reconsider, Cano-Merida v. INS, 311 F.3d 960, 964 (9th Cir.2002), and we deny the petition for review.

The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Karapetyan’s motion to reconsider because the motion failed to identify any error of fact or law in the BIA’s prior order denying his motion to reopen as untimely. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(b)(1).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
