U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 17-1682
Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals
[PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Wollman and Benton, Circuit Judges]
Petition for Review - Immigration. In this case, the BIA rejected findings
of fact made by the IJ, but the court cannot discern from the decision
whether the BIA followed the governing regulations on standard of review
or engaged in impermissible factfinding of its own; the matter is remanded
for further proceedings in which the BIA may clarify its decision or apply
the correct standard of review as appropriate.
