KUMAR CHETTRI, Petitioner, v. LORETTA E. LYNCH, Attorney General, Respondent.


NOT FOR PUBLICATION

Agency No. A072-131-283 MEMORANDUM On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Argued and Submitted December 7, 2015 Pasadena, California Before: PREGERSON, D.W. NELSON, and CALLAHAN, Circuit Judges.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. --------

Kumar Chettri appeals the Board of Immigration Appeals' ("BIA") denial of his motion to reopen proceedings. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252 and we deny the petition.

The BIA denied Chettri's motion to reopen because his prior attempts to obtain asylum using false information undermined his credibility and because his motion contained inconsistencies that undermined his claims. Because we cannot say that the BIA's decision was "arbitrary, irrational, or contrary to law," its denial of the motion to reopen is affirmed. Go v. Holder, 744 F.3d 604, 609 (9th Cir. 2014).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
