MERRICK B. GARLAND, Attorney General, Respondent. On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Submitted November 8, 2021** Before: CANBY, TASHIMA, and MILLER, Circuit Judges. Jose Guzman Hernandez, a native and citizen of Honduras, 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 * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen. Najmabadi v. Holder, 597 F.3d 983, 986 (9th Cir. 2010). We deny the petition for review. The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Guzman Hernandez’s second motion to reopen as untimely and number barred, where it was filed more than 6 years after the order of removal became final, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and where Guzman Hernandez has not established changed country conditions in Honduras to qualify for a regulatory exception to the time and number limitations, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3)(ii); Toufighi v. Mukasey, 538 F.3d 988, 996 (9th Cir. 2008) (requiring movant to produce material evidence with motion to reopen that conditions in country of nationality had changed). We reject as unsupported by the record Guzman Hernandez’s contentions that the BIA ignored evidence or otherwise erred in its analysis of his motion. We do not reach Guzman Hernandez’s contentions regarding his prima facie eligibility for relief. See Santiago-Rodriguez v. Holder, 657 F.3d 820, 829 (9th Cir. 2011) (review limited to the grounds relied on by the BIA). The temporary stay of removal remains in place until issuance of the mandate.
