How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that this court’s review is limited to the BIA decision and the portions of the IJ’s decision that it expressly adopted
  • holding that the IJ’s assumption that the petitioner should understand Haitian politics, given his claim that he was a high ranking member of the president’s political party, was improper speculation and could not support an adverse credibility determination
  • noting that we “apply pre-REAL ID Act standards” to applications for relief filed “before May 11, 2005, the effective date of the REAL ID Act.”
  • holding in a pre-REAL ID Act case that '[t]he IJ . . . erred by not giving [petitioner] an opportunity to explain his failure to provide additional corroborating evidence'
  • concluding evidence from a bond hearing should not be considered in a removal hearing
  • explaining that bond determination hearings and removal hearings are entirely separate proceedings
