Court Grants Review of BIA Denial of Cancellation, Holds Findings Were Not Supported by Record and BIA Failed to Apply Appropriate Standard of Review


he Sixth Circuit determined the BIA erred in finding new evidence was previously available and that the BIA failed to consider hardship ground raised in the Motion to Reopen, instead offering a cursory analysis that didn’t allow for meaningful review. The court remanded the case to properly apply the law. The court also addressed petitioner’s argument that no jurisdiction was vested in the immigration judge, BIA, or court because the Notice to Appear failed to state the time and place of the hearing, holding that jurisdiction was vested and distinguishing the stop-time rule in Pereira.
