PER CURIAM:

Zhao Wen Chen, a native and citizen of China,

petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration

Appeals (Board) denying his motions to reconsider and reopen.

We have reviewed the administrative record and Chen’s claims and

conclude that the Board did not abuse its discretion in denying

Chen’s motion to reopen his asylum claim. See 8 C.F.R.

§ 1003.2(a), (c) (2011). We accordingly deny the petition for

review in part for the reasons stated by the Board. See In re:

Chen (B.I.A. June 2, 2010). We dismiss the petition for review

in part for lack of jurisdiction with respect to Chen’s

challenge to the Board’s denial of his motion to reopen and

reconsider his claim for cancellation of removal. See 8 U.S.C.

§ 1252(a)(2)(B)(i) (2006). Finally, 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 IN PART
