Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
BEEZER, Circuit Judge:
Carlos Antonio Estrada petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) denying his requests for political asylum and withholding of deportation. We find that Estrada has not established either a clear probability of persecution or a well-founded fear of persecution.
