191478P.pdf   07/07/2020  Bashir Sharif  v.  William P. Barr
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  19-1478
   Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals   
[PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Loken, Circuit Judges] Petition for Review - Immigration. Petitioner seeks review of the BIA's decision denying his motion to reopen his removal proceedings; the court finds it lacks jurisdiction to review the majority of petitioner's arguments concerning his motion to reopen his asylum and withholding of removal claims because they merely constitute a brief in opposition to the BIA's fact findings and do not present questions of law; with respect to petitioner's CAT claim, the court has broader jurisdiction, but the BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion to reopen as petitioner failed to demonstrate that changes in Somalia over the last decade amount to changed country conditions that would change the result in his case; with respect to petitioner's motion for remand, the court could not review the BIA's order to the extent it denied remand on the asylum and withholding of removal claims; the BIA did not abuse its discretion in determining that further proceedings on petitioner's motion to reopen his CAT claim were not warranted by the newly-presented evidence attached to the motion for remand; claim the BIA's handling of the matter violated petitioner's Fifth Amendment due process rights rejected.
