New BIA case re: firearms: (1) In removal proceedings, the antique firearm exception in 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(3)(2006)is an affirmative defense that must be sufficiently raised by an alien charged under section 237(a)(2)(C) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(C) (2006),
as an alien who has been convicted of an offense involving a firearm.
(2) Where the Department of Homeland Security has presented evidence that an alien has been convicted of an offense involving a firearm, it has met its burden of presenting clear and convincing evidence of deportability, and the burden then shifts to the respondent to show that the weapon was, in fact, antique.

A new case re: res judicata: Res judicata does not prevent the government from using a previous conviction in connection with second removal proceedings based on its combination with a newly arising conviction when the combination of these convictions constitutes a claim that could not possibly have been litigated during the first removal proceedings. Arizona statute allowing petitioner to vacate previous conviction was for rehabilitative purposes, and government could therefore use the conviction in subsequent removal proceeding.
