Fraser, Senior Litigation Counsel, Susan K. Houser, Office of Immigration Litigation, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Washington, D.C., for Respondent. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Mary Nasoh, a native and citizen of Cameroon, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals ( Board ) denying her motions to reopen and reconsider. Because Nasoh fails to raise any arguments that meaningfully challenge the propriety of the Board s denial of her motions to reopen and reconsider in the argument section of her brief, we find that she has failed to preserve any issues for review. See Fed. R. App. P. 28(a)(9)(A) ( [T]he argument . . . must contain . . . appellant s contentions and the reasons for them, with citations to the authorities and parts of the record on which the appellant relies. ); Edwards v. City of Goldsboro, 178 F.3d 231, 241 specific claim n.6 (4th dictates triggers Cir. of 1999) [Rule abandonment ( Failure 28] of with to respect that claim comply to a on with the particular appeal. ). Accordingly, we deny the petition for review for the reasons stated by the Board. We dispense with See In re: Nasoh (B.I.A. Feb. 17, 2011). oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process. PETITION DENIED 2
