Overview: BIA did not err by denying alien's second motion to reopen as untimely and numerically barred because he failed to show changed country conditions under 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3)(ii); China's enactment of family planning law did not qualify as change in circumstances because law maintained China's current population control measures.
