PER CURIAM.
Guatemalan citizen Miguel Angel Bautis-ta-Lucas petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals, which upheld an immigration judge’s decision to deny Bautista’s motion to reopen removal proceedings and rescind an in ab-sentia removal order. After careful review, we conclude the denial of the motion to reopen was not an abuse of discretion. See Kanyi v. Gonzales, 406 F.3d 1087, 1089-90 (8th Cir.2005) (standard of review). Accordingly, we deny the petition. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
