123463P.pdf   01/09/2014  Bassem Mansour  v.  Eric H. Holder, Jr.
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  12-3463
   Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Bye and Smith, Circuit Judges] 
   Petition for Review - Immigration. The court need not decide whether the 
   BIA's unpublished decision is entitled to Chevron deference as the 
   decision can be affirmed under the lesser form of deference set out in 
   Skidmore v. Swift & Co., 323 U.S. 134 (1944); 8 C.F.R. Sec. 245.10)(a3) is 
   ambiguous and the BIA's conclusion that petitioner is not entitled to an 
   adjustment of status is a persuasive interpretation of section 245(i) of 
   the Immigration and Nationality Act and is not plainly erroneous or 
   inconsistent with the regulation.
