PER CURIAM:
Wen Jian Ni, a native and citizen of the People’s Republic of
China, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration
Appeals

dismissing

his

appeal

from

the

immigration

judge’s

decision finding that he filed a frivolous application for asylum.
Based on our review of the record, we conclude that substantial
evidence supports the agency’s finding that Ni knowingly and
deliberately filed a frivolous asylum application.
Y-L-, 24 I. & N. Dec. 151, 157-60 (B.I.A. 2007).

See Matter of
Accordingly, we

deny the petition for review for the reasons stated by the Board.
In re: Wen Jian Ni (B.I.A. May 1, 2015).

We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately
presented in the materials before this court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
