U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 13-2171
Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals
[PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Shepherd and Kelly, Circuit Judges]
Petition for Review - Immigration. The BIA permissibly categorized
petitioner's offense of making terroristic threats in violation of Minn.
Stat. Section 609.713 subd. 1 as a crime of moral turpitude and did not
err in concluding he was ineligible for cancellation of removal; the BIA's
determination whether petitioner presented sufficient grounds to reopen a
hearing for the purpose of determining whether he is eligible for asylum
and withholding of removal based on his fear of gang violence and
recruitment in El Salvador does not present a question of law or a
constitutional claim over which this court has jurisdiction. Judge Kelly,
concurring in part and dissenting in part.
