Each of these petitions challenges a decision of the BIA denying a motion to reopen, or affirming an Immigration Judge's ("IJ") denial of a motion to reopen, based on either the movant's failure to demonstrate changed country conditions sufficient to avoid the time and numerical limits applicable to such motions or the movant's failure to demonstrate prima facie eligibility for the underlying relief sought. See 8 C.F.R. 1003.2(c). The applicable standard of review is well-established. Ali v. Gonzales, 448 F.3d 515, 517 (2d Cir. 2006).
