Every decision we've filed under Immigration (Civil).
The Ninth Circuit denied a petition for review challenging the Board of Immigration Appeals' refusal to remand for a new hearing with a different interpreter. The court held the petitioners did not show prejudice from interpretation problems and did not establish the required nexus for asylum or withholding.
The Eleventh Circuit denied Woff Senatus's petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' decision. The court concluded that Senatus's Florida conviction qualifies as a crime of violence, justifying his removal.
The Eleventh Circuit denied Jashim Uddin's petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' decision. Uddin failed to demonstrate that the Bangladeshi government was unwilling or unable to protect him from private actors.
The Fourth Circuit denied Karen Johana Orellana-Alvarado's petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' decision. The court found substantial evidence supporting the Board's determination.
The United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit denied Leke Dodaj's petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' decision. The court upheld the Board's reversal of the Immigration Judge's grant of cancellation of removal.
The Sixth Circuit denied Leke Dodaj's petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' decisions. The court found no jurisdiction to review the discretionary denial of cancellation of removal and upheld the Board's denial of reconsideration.
The Eighth Circuit denied Emmanuel Tiah's petition for review of a Board of Immigration Appeals decision. The court upheld Tiah's removability based on violations of protection orders.
The Fourth Circuit held that a New Jersey statute criminalizing the storage of child sexual abuse material on a file-sharing program categorically qualifies as a crime of child abuse under federal immigration law. The court also ruled that it lacks jurisdiction to review the agency's discretionary denial of cancellation of removal and adjustment of status.
The Fourth Circuit denied a motion for a stay of removal based on the government's representation that it has no current plans for removal. The denial is without prejudice to the petitioner's ability to file a new motion if the government's plans change.
The Seventh Circuit affirmed the dismissal of a challenge to the denial of a spousal immigration petition under the Adam Walsh Act. The court held that the statute grants the Secretary of Homeland Security sole and unreviewable discretion over no-risk determinations, stripping federal courts of jurisdiction to review the agency's process or constitutional claims outside of removal proceedings.
