How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that the 12 USCA11 Case: 20-11419 Date Filed: 08/18/2021 Page: 13 of 15 “relating to” parenthetical in 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(3)(B)(iii
- finding that the key phrase in section 237(a)(1)(H) of the Act is “provisions of this paragraph,” which refers only to grounds of deportability under section 237(a)(1)
- finding that the language and structure of section 237(a)(3)(B)(iii) of the Act showed Congress’ intent that the statute’s parenthetical would “provide a convenient shorthand description” of the removal ground
- noting that “[t]hese descriptive parentheticals are different from other subparagraphs of the aggravated felony definition that use parentheticals explicitly to limit those offenses that may constitute an aggravated felony”
