GARLAND, UNITED 19 STATES ATTORNEY GENERAL, 20 Respondent. 21 _____________________________________ 22 23 FOR PETITIONER: Michael Borja, Esq., Borja Law 24 Firm, P.C., Jackson Heights, NY. 25 26 FOR RESPONDENT: Brian Boynton, Acting Assistant 27 Attorney General; Anthony P. 28 Nicastro, Assistant Director; 1 Timothy Bo Stanton, Trial 2 Attorney, Office of Immigration 3 Litigation, United States 4 Department of Justice, Washington, 5 DC. 6 7 UPON DUE CONSIDERATION of this petition for review of a 8 Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) decision, it is hereby 9 ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED that the petition for review 10 is DENIED. 11 Petitioner Pablo Enrique Delgado Quinde, a native and 12 citizen of Ecuador, seeks review of a January 31, 2020, 13 decision of the BIA affirming a June 10, 2019, decision of an 14 Immigration Judge (“IJ”) denying his motion to reopen.
