How courts have described this case

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

  • concluding that former members of the Honduran Mara-18 gang who would be targeted for leaving the gang were not members of a particular social group
  • explaining that we review the IJ’s decision only to the extent that the BIA expressly adopted or agreed with it
  • noting that this Court does not consider issues that were not reached by the BIA
  • stating that the group must “be discrete and have definable boundaries—it must not be amorphous, overbroad, diffuse, or subjective”
  • “[S]haring a common, immutable characteristic is a necessary, but not sufficient, condition to qualify as a particular social group under BIA precedent.”
  • explaining because the BIA’s decision is the final agency judgment, we do “not consider issues that were not reached by the BIA”
