Ramirez v. Sessions

Gonzalez v. Sessions

(United States Fourth Circuit) - Petition granted; reversed and remanded the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals which had found that payment of court costs qualified as a conviction under the Immigration and Naturalization Act. Plaintiff entered the US illegally and then several years later pled guilty to a misdemeanor marijuana charge where the court withheld adjudication of guilt and assessed $100 in court costs. The Fourth Circuit held that the assessment of court costs was not a punishment and therefore there was not a conviction.

Shaw v. Sessions

The British citizen had pleaded guilty under New Jersey's generic conspiracy statute to agreeing with another person to commit a crime.

Martinez-Perez v. Sessions

(United States First Circuit) - Affirmed the denial of an asylum claim in a case where an immigrant claimed mistreatment in Honduras because of her Afro-Honduran race and physical disability caused by polio. The Board of Immigration Appeals rejected her asylum application upon finding that the harassment she endured in Honduras did not rise to the level of persecution. Agreeing with the Board's assessment, the First Circuit denied her petition for judicial review.

Lemus v. Sessions

(United States First Circuit) - Denied a petition for review of an administrative decision ordering a Guatemalan couple removed from the United States. The husband and wife moved to reopen their removal proceedings, claiming there was new relief available to them. Agreeing with the Board of Immigration Appeals that their motion was untimely and number-barred, the First Circuit noted that this was their 17th motion for reopening or reconsideration and was brought nearly 16 years after the initial removal order.

Sihotang v. Sessions

(United States First Circuit) - Granted an Indonesian national's petition for review of a decision denying his motion to reopen removal proceedings. The evangelical Christian, who alleged he would be persecuted based on his religion if returned to his homeland, argued that the Board of Immigration Appeals should have granted his motion to reopen his decade-old removal proceedings, because he had shown a material change in country conditions and had made a prima-facie showing of eligibility for asylum. Finding some merit in his arguments for reopening, the First Circuit vacated and remanded for further proceedings.

Aguilar-de Guillen v. Sessions

(United States First Circuit) - Denied an undocumented immigrant's petition for review of a decision ordering her removed from the United States. The El Salvador national sought asylum relief and protection under the Convention Against Torture Act, citing gang death threats she had received in her home country that had prompted her to leave. However, the First Circuit found no basis to overturn the Board of Immigration Appeals' conclusion that she did not have a well-founded fear of future persecution or satisfy other requirements for the relief she sought.

Rivera v. Sessions

(United States First Circuit) - Dismissed an alien's petition for review of a decision denying his request for cancellation of removal. The Board of Immigration Appeals had found that the citizen of Guatemala was ineligible for cancellation of removal, due in part to criminal charges pending against him of child molestation of his ex-wife's then-twelve-year-old granddaughter. On appeal, the First Circuit dismissed his petition for review.
