KITETE v. BARR (2019)

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Fatouma KITETE, Petitioner, v. William P. BARR, Attorney General, Respondent.

No. 19-1388

Decided: August 14, 2019

Before KEENAN, FLOYD, and THACKER, Circuit Judges.

Fatouma Kitete, Petitioner Pro Se. Carmel A. Morgan, Tim Ramnitz, Office of Immigration Litigation, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Washington, D.C., for Respondent.

Fatouma Kitete, a native of Egypt and a citizen of Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo), petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) denying her motion to reopen removal proceedings sua sponte. We lack jurisdiction to review how the agency exercises its sua sponte discretion. See Lawrence v. Lynch, 826 F.3d 198, 206 (4th Cir. 2016); Mosere v. Mukasey, 552 F.3d 397, 400-01 (4th Cir. 2009). Accordingly, we dismiss the petition for review. 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.

PETITION DISMISSED

PER CURIAM:

Petition dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
