Ashley Hester Ayers v. John Robert Ayers

How courts have described this case

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

  • recognizing that “misrepresentations on tax filings, such as claiming a dependent nephew residing in Mexico who did not qualify under U.S. tax law . . . reflect adversely on [an alien’s] credibility and character, which are relevant factors in the discretionary analysis”
  • noting that the Supreme Court did not “specify the proper standard of review for this hardship determination” but finding the court did not need to “determine exactly what degree of deference we owe”
  • pretermitting the question of whether the court had jurisdiction to review the BIA’s continuance determination because the petitioner failed on the merits
