MEMORANDUM

Hieymi Bautista-Lopez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying her motion to remand. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to remand. Romero-Ruiz v. Mukasey, 538 F.3d 1057, 1062 (9th Cir.2008). We deny the petition for review.

The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion to remand where Bau-tista-Lopez failed to demonstrate that the new evidence she submitted would likely have changed the outcome of her case. See Shin v. Mukasey, 547 F.3d 1019, 1025 (9th Cir.2008) (“Aliens who seek to remand or reopen proceedings to pursue relief bear a ‘heavy burden’ of proving that, if proceedings were reopened, the new evidence would likely change the result in the case.” (citation omitted)).

In light of this disposition, we do not reach Bautista-Lopez’s remaining contentions.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
