U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 11-3860
Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals
[PUBLISHED] [Riley, Author, with Colloton and Gruender, Circuit Judges]
Petition for Review - Immigration. Assuming petitioners' accounts of
the ICE officers' conduct are true, any Fourth Amendment violations they
suffered were not sufficiently egregious to entitle them to the remedy they
seek - exclusion of decisive evidence in their civil removal proceeding;
while both the IJ and the BIA erred in their treatment of petitioners'
testimony, the errors did not require a remand because they were not
prejudicial since they were relevant only to petitioners' Fourth
Amendment claims and did not go to the factual finding upon which they
were removed - namely, that they are aliens who entered the U.S. without
proper admission; the court had no jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. Sec. 1252
over petitioners' claim that the IJ deprived them of due process by failing
to shift the burden of proof once they made a prima facie case of a Fourth
Amendment violation as they had failed to raise the issue at the
administrative level.
