New 9th Circuit and BIA Immigration Cases

Solis v. Holder

Posted in Unpublished Ninth Circuit by newimmigrationcases on March 8, 2010

**Credibility; COR, pretermission, due process, EP** 

Substantial evidence supports the agency’s adverse credibility determination because Solis failed to produce his brother’s testimony at the hearing to corroborate his claim, where his brother was the only witness to events forming the basis of Solis’ claim and was available to testify.  In addition, Solis’ argument that the IJ’s pretermission of his cancellation of removal claim violated due process fails, as does his contention that the qualifying relative requirement for cancellation of removal violates equal protection.
