   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  17-1430
   Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals   
[PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Colloton and Benton, Circuit Judges] Petition for Review - Immigration. The BIA did not err in reversing the IJ's grant of withholding of removal on the ground petitioner's proposed particular social group - former taxi drivers from Quezaltepeque, Guatemala who have witnessed a gang murder - was not cognizable; petitioner failed to present evidence that individuals who met the description would be perceived, considered or recognized by Salvadoran society to be a distinct social group; as he was unable to establish a cognizable particular social group, petitioner cannot show that any past or future persecution would be on account of a protected ground, and he was not entitled to withholding of removal.
