Abdi Dulane v. Immigration and Naturalization Service

KANE, Senior District Judge.

Abdi Dulane has petitioned for review of the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) denying his motion to reopen and remand and dismissing his appeal from the denial of his requests for asylum and withholding of deportation. Dulane asks in the alternative that we reinstate the period of voluntary departure. We exercise jurisdiction over and grant the petition for review pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1105a(a).
