U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 14-2957
Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals
[PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Colloton and Shepherd, Circuit Judges]
Petition for Review - Immigration. Under the circumstances presented, the
IJ did not commit a fundamental error by failing to inform petitioner
about asylum or other possible avenues of relief, and there was no due
process violation; the BIA did not abuse its discretion by dismissing
petitioner's appeal instead of reopening proceedings and remanding the
matter because petitioner failed to show the evidence he presented in
support of the motion to reopen was previously unavailable.
