U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 21-2166
Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals
[PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Wollman and Shepherd, Circuit Judges]
Petition for Review - Immigration. The Board of Immigration Appeals did
not err in concluding that petitioner's offense of conviction -negligent
child abuse resulting in serious injury in violation of Neb. Rev. Stat.
Sec. 28-707(1), (5) -was categorically a crime of child abuse; the Board
did not err in concluding petitioner was convicted of a particularly
serious crime; the Board reviewed the IJ's denial of cancellation of
removal by expressly adopting the IJ's reasons for denying the
application; petitioner failed to show it was more likely than not he
would be detained and tortured on the basis of his U.S. crimes if he
returned to Iraq.
