How courts have described this case

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

• recognizing that there is no \per se bar to the agency's consideration of\ uncorroborated police reports lacking a conviction
• recognizing the probative value of an arrest and its underlying circumstances in determining an alien’s suitability for discretionary relief
• finding that the use of a police report was not fundamentally unfair \since the petitioner was given an opportunity to challenge its veracity and refute its contents\
• noting that Arreguin De Rodriguez “rested on idiosyncratic facts” and did not “create an ironclad rule that an arrest warrant without a subsequent conviction may never be considered in the discretionary relief context”
• reviewing the question of whether Arreguin precluded the agency's reliance on the police report in that case
• upholding admissibility of police -13- report after the agency determined its reliability and fairness and offered petitioner \an opportunity to challenge its veracity and refute its contents\
