    PER CURIAM:
    Tesfaye

    Teferi,

    native

    and

    citizen

    of

    Ethiopia,

    petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration


    Appeals (Board).

    The order denied his motion to reconsider the

    Boards denial of his motion to reopen.

    We have reviewed the

    record and the Boards order and find that the Board did not abuse
    its discretion in denying Teferis motion to reconsider.
    C.F.R. 1003.2(a) (2004).

    See 8

    Accordingly, we deny the petition for

    review on the reasoning of the Board.


    A76-898-259 (BIA Feb. 17, 2004).

    See In re: Teferi, No.

    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
