Madhukant Jinabhai Mehta v. Immigration and Naturalization Service

FEINBERG, Circuit Judge:

Madhukant Jinabhai Mehta, an Indian national, petitions this court to reverse a decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals denying his application to be reclassified as a lawful permanent resident. The Board affirmed the Immigration Law Judge’s findings that Mehta had failed to qualify for an investor exemption from the labor certification requirement. Mehta challenges the Board’s interpretation of the investor regulation, and also claims that the Board should have remanded his case to the Immigration Judge in light of new evidence. We deny the petition.
