How courts have described this case

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

• holding that record compelled finding of pattern or practice of persecution and remanding for BIA to recon- sider application for withholding
• holding that a well-founded fear requires petitioner to show more than a generalized or random possibility of persecution
• holding that, in contrast to the proof required to show a well-founded fear of future persecution, “proof of particularized persecution is not required to estab- lish past persecution”
• holding that relocation would be unreasonable where petitioners, who were 75 and 66 years old, would have “no property, no home, no family, and no means of earning a living”
• finding that the petitioners could safely relocate to the Serb-held parts of Bosnia-Herzegovina without fear of the Croats or Muslims
• reiterating that “persecution of an entire group can render proof of individual targeting entirely superfluous”
