How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that an 1-213 form merited little if any weight where petitioner disputed the information on the form and the source of the information was in doubt
  • holding that “[t]estimony should not be disregarded merely because it is . . . in the individual’s own interest”
  • holding that an I-213 form merited little if any weight where petitioner disputed the information on the form and the source of the information was in doubt
  • holding the I-213 form inadmissible as unreliable because alien disputed content and provided specific evidence to the contrary
  • explaining that prima facie evidence is “evidence which, if unexplained or uncontradicted, is sufficient to sustain a judgment in favor of the issue which it supports, but which may be contradicted by other evidence.”
  • vacating the Board’s determination based in part upon an inaccurate Form I-213 for which information was provided by a biased Service informant
