1Opinion of the Court
BERZON, Circuit Judge.
This case presents for review a literally incomprehensible opinion by an immigration judge (IJ), denying petitioner’s applications for asylum and withholding of removal. 1 The Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA), pursuant to the “streamlining” regulation, 8 C.F.R. •§ 1003.1(e)(4) (2004), 2 affirmed without opinion. When the agency’s only. explanation of its final action is incoherent, we may not substantively review it without violating basic principles of judicial review. 3 We therefore grant the petition and remand the case to the BIA.
