Immigration – Motion To Reopen; Jurisdiction

Where an immigrant based his motion to reopen a removal proceeding and the Board of Immigration Appeals based its decision exclusively on the agency’s sua sponte authority under 8 C.F.R. Section 1003.2(a), the appellate court lacked jurisdiction to review the decision. Petition dismissed.
