How courts have described this case

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

  • recognizing that a change in the government that has persecuted the alien may constitute a fundamental change in circumstances
  • concluding that the BIA erred in relying solely on the State Department’s country report for Indonesia because it did not conduct an individualized analysis in determining whether a fundamental change in circumstances had occurred
  • explaining that courts have found substantial evidence supported a fundamental change where there was evidence of “a change in the government that persecuted the petitioner,” and “where the evidence demonstrates a substantial decline in violence against persecuted groups”
