[PUBLISHED] Kelly, Author, with Benton and Stras, Circuit Judges] Petition for Review - Immigration. In denying petioner's motion to reopen, the BIA failed to address whether petitioner's inability to get proper medical attention constituted exceptional circumstances sufficient to excuse her failure to attend her asylum hearing, and to deny the motion on this basis was an abuse of discretion; remanded to permit the BIA to determine in the first instance whether petitioner's motion to reopen warrants a favorable exercise of the BIA's discretion.
