¶1MEMORANDUM
¶2Alejandro Apodaca Miranda and his family, natives and citizens of Mexico, petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying their motion to reopen. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen. See Iturribarria v. INS, 321 F.3d 889, 894 (9th Cir.2003). We deny the petition for review.
¶3In their opening brief, Petitioners fail to address, and therefore have waived any challenge to, the BIA’s determination that the evidence they submitted with the motion to reopen was not new or previously unavailable. See Martinez-Serrano v. INS, 94 F.3d 1256, 1259-60 (9th Cir.1996) (holding issues which are not specifically raised and argued in a party’s opening brief are waived).
¶4We agree with the BIA’s conclusion that the performance by former appellate counsel did not result in prejudice to Petitioners, and thus their claim of ineffective assistance of counsel fails. See Rojas-Garcia v. Ashcroft, 339 F.3d 814, 826 (9th Cir.2003) (to prevail on an ineffective assistance of counsel claim, a petitioner must demonstrate prejudice).
¶5PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
