Head Comment: With separate concurring opinion from STRANCH

Court: 6th Circuit Court (Published Opinions)

Attorneys 1: ON BRIEF: Terence G. Hoerman, AMERICAN IMMIGRATION HELP NOW, P.C., Grosse Pointe Park, Michigan, for Petitioner.

Attorneys 2: ON BRIEF: Aric A. Anderson, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Washington, D.C., for Respondent.

Judge(s): STRANCH, THAPAR, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges

Court Appealed: On Petition for Review from the Board of Immigration Appeals

THAPAR, Circuit Judge. An Immigration Judge denied Miguel Angel Moctezuma-Reyes’s application for cancellation of his removal from the United States. The Board of Immigration Appeals affirmed. The Immigration Judge and the BIA’s interpretation of the operative statute was correct, and their application of the statute to these facts doesn’t warrant reversal. We deny the petition for review.
