Fernando Mendiola-Sanchez Mario Mendiola-Araujo v. John Ashcroft, Attorney General
Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Decided August 27, 2004No. 02-72633PublishedCited by 18 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
SCHROEDER, Chief Judge:
Fernando Mendiola-Sanchez Sr. and his son Mario Mendiola-Araujo are natives and citizens of Mexico who seek review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) denial of their application for suspension of deportation. The United States has been their home since 1983, but because the Mendiolas left the United States for a period of more than 90 days to care for elderly relatives, the BIA concluded that they were statutorily ineligible for relief. We must deny the petition for review because our current immigration law requires that result. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(d)(2).
