NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS MAY 20 2022 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT MARIA TRINDAD RODRIGUEZ- No. 15-72895 FREGOSO, Agency No. A201-289-483 Petitioner, v. MEMORANDUM* MERRICK B. GARLAND, Attorney General, Respondent. On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Submitted May 17, 2022** Before: CANBY, TASHIMA, and NGUYEN, Circuit Judges. Maria Trinidad Rodriguez-Fregoso, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying her motion to reopen removal proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the BIA’s denial of a motion to reopen. * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). Oyeniran v. Holder, 672 F.3d 800, 806 (9th Cir. 2012). We deny the petition for review. The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Rodriguez-Fregoso’s motion to reopen where she failed to demonstrate that the evidence she sought to offer was not available and could not have been discovered or presented at the former hearing. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(1); Guzman v. I.N.S., 318 F.3d 911, 913 (9th Cir. 2003) (no abuse of discretion where evidence was previously available and capable of discovery prior to former hearing). The temporary stay of removal remains in place until issuance of the mandate. PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED. 2 15-72895 15-72895 Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ca9 9th Cir.
