How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that an unsupported one- sentence statement that country conditions had changed “did not represent the kind of individualized analysis this court has required”
  • holding that “serious” persecution including 24-hour interrogation and several-hit-and-run car accidents “did not amount to torture”
  • holding that where petitioner provides some corroborating evidence, “his failure to produce still more supporting evidence should not be held against him”
  • holding that an adverse credibility determination may not be based on “reasoning ... by [an] IJ [that] is fatally flawed”
  • concluding that “wiretapping, hit-and-run attempts to injure or kill [petitioner], detention, interrogation, and warrantless searches . . . did not amount to torture”
  • stating that “[t]his court has long held that, where allegations are otherwise unrefuted and credible, the IJ may not require corroboration of claims”
