Grant of Petition for Review of Dismissal of BIA Appeal

In Arredondo v. Holder, No. 08-73835, a petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) dismissal of petitioner’s appeal from an Immigration Judge’s (IJ’s) decision denying cancellation of removal, the court granted the petition where 1) the BIA did not discuss the problem that petitioner’s Idaho conviction was recorded in 1997, more than five years after petitioner entered this country; and 2) the court could not affirm the BIA on a ground upon which it did not rely.
