Bashkim BAJRAKTARI, Petitioner, v. Jefferson B. SESSIONS III, Attorney General, Respondent.
Bashkim Bajraktari, a native and citizen of Albania, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) denying his motion to reopen. We have thoroughly reviewed the administrative record and Bajraktari’s claims on appeal and conclude that the Board did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(a), (c) (2018); Mosere v. Mukasey, 552 F.3d 397, 400 (4th Cir. 2009); see also Prasad v. Holder, 776 F.3d 222, 228 (4th Cir. 2015) (reaffirming that the Board may deny a motion to reopen “solely on the ground that [the alien] has not established prima facie eligibility for” the relief he seeks). We therefore deny the petition for review for the reasons stated by the Board. See In re Bajraktari (B.I.A. Dec. 20, 2017). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
