Fadi ALHAJHASSAN, Petitioner, v. Eric H. HOLDER, Jr., Attorney General, Respondent, 550 F. App'x 443

MEMORANDUM Fadi Alhajhassan, a native and citizen of Lebanon, 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, Sharma v. Holder, 633 F.3d 865, 872 (9th Cir.2011), and review de novo questions of law, Ahmed v. Mukasey, 548 F.3d 768, 771 (9th Cir.2008). We deny the petition for review.

The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Alhajhassan’s motion where Alhajhassan failed to present clear and convincing evidence of a strong likelihood that his marriage to a U.S. citizen entered into after the commencement of removal proceedings was bona fide. See Sharma, 633 F.3d at 872 (applicant must offer evidence “that is probative of the motivation for marriage, not just the bare fact of getting married”). Alhajhassan’s due process claims therefore fail. See Lata v. INS, 204 F.3d 1241, 1246 (9th Cir.2000) (requiring error and prejudice to prevail on a due process claim); see also Ghaly v.

INS, 58 F.3d 1425, 1430 (9th Cir.1995) (BIA not obliged to refer to every piece of evidence); Najmabadi v. Holder, 597 F.3d 983, 990 (9th Cir.2010) (BIA need not “write an exegesis on every contention”). Finally, we deny Alhajhassan’s motion to supplement the record and his request to take judicial notice of facts related to his prior attorney. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(4)(A); see also Fisher v. INS, 79 F.3d 955, 963 (9th Cir.1996) (en banc) (the court’s review is limited to the administrative record). PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
