*1 Before: FERNANDEZ, TASHIMA, and FRIEDLAND, Circuit Judges.
Mario Alfonso Molina, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reopen removal proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen. Mohammed v. Gonzales , 400 *2 F.3d 785, 791 (9th Cir. 2005). We deny the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Molina ’s motion to reopen as untimely where it was filed more than one year after the order of removal became final, and where Molina failed to establish changed country conditions in Mexico to qualify for the regulatory exception to the time limitation for filing a motion to reopen. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), (3)(ii); Najmabadi v. Holder , 597 F.3d 983, 990-91 (9th Cir. 2010) (BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying motion to reopen where petitioner failed to submit material evidence of qualitatively different country conditions).
The temporary stay of removal remains in place until issuance of the mandate.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
