Soumare v. Mukasey

Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit

Decided May 8, 2008No. 07-2405PublishedCited by 22 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

KANNE, Circuit Judge.

Oumar Soumare, a native and citizen of Guinea, petitions for review of a final order of removal issued by an Immigration Judge (IJ) and affirmed by the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA). The IJ denied Soumare’s application for asylum and withholding of removal after determining that Soumare had not met his burden of proof through credible testimony or corroborating evidence. Because the record supports the IJ’s adverse credibility determination and his decision to require corroboration, we deny Soumare’s petition.

I. History
