Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit
Decided December 23, 2005No. Docket 03-40574-AGPublishedCited by 678 opinions
1Per curiam
We consider here whether (1) in an instance where the BIA agrees with the IJ’s adverse credibility determination and, without rejecting any of the IJ’s grounds for decision, emphasizes particular aspects of that decision, we may base our decision on a ground of the IJ’s decision not explicitly discussed by the BIA; and (2) in the circumstances presented, adverse credibility findings of the BIA and IJ were based on substantial evidence insofar as they relied on inconsistencies between petitioner’s account of persecution in an airport interview and her subsequent testimony before the IJ.
