*1 Before: THOMAS, Chief Judge, and SILVERMAN and RAWLINSON, Circuit Judges.
Edras Naun Cruz-Montoya, a native and citizen of Honduras, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decision denying his motion for a continuance. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the *2 agency’s denial of a continuance. Ahmed v. Holder , 569 F.3d 1009, 1012 (9th Cir. 2009). We deny the petition for review.
The agency did not abuse its discretion in denying Cruz-Montoya’s motion for a continuance for lack of good cause. See 8 C.F.R. §§ 1003.29, 1003.31(c); Ahmed , 569 F.3d at 1012 (factors considered in determining whether the denial of a continuance constitutes an abuse of discretion include the reasonableness of the immigrant’s conduct).
The record does not support Cruz-Montoya’s contention that the BIA ignored his arguments and failed to analyze relevant factors. See Najmabadi v. Holder , 597 F.3d 983, 990 (9th Cir. 2010) (the BIA must “merely . . . announce its decision in terms sufficient to enable a reviewing court to perceive that it has heard and thought and not merely reacted” (citation omitted)).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
