171653P.pdf   07/31/2018  Bryan Alexander Gomez-Rivera  v.  Jefferson B. Sessions, III
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  17-1653
   Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals   
   [PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Kelly and Grasz, Circuit Judges] 
   Petition for Review - Immigration. The IJ and BIA applied the correct 
   legal standard in requiring petitioner to show his social group or 
   political opinion must be "one central reason" for the persecution and not 
   be simply incidental or tangential to another reason; on this record, the 
   BIA did not err in concluding that petitioner's relationship to his father 
   - a former policeman- was not a central reason for the alleged 
   persecution, but rather incidental or tangential to general gang 
   recruitment; the evidence was insufficient to establish an imputed 
   political opinion or that the gangs were concerned with petiitioner's 
   political beliefs. Judge Kelly, dissenting.
