221734P.pdf   05/03/2023  Jaime Oxlaj  v.  Merrick Garland
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  22-1734
   Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals   
   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Colloton and Melloy, Circuit Judges] 
   Petition for Review - Immigration. The agency did not err in concluding 
   that petitioner's proposed social group - witnesses who cooperate with law 
   enforcement - is not socially distinct; because petitioner failed to meet 
   his burden of proof for asylum, it necessarily follows that he fails to 
   meet the higher burden of proof for withholding of removal.
