Duque-Caceres v. Holder

Court of Appeals for the First Circuit

Decided July 29, 2014No. 13-1246Unpublished

1Opinion of the Court

TORRUELLA, Circuit Judge.

Petitioner Omar Antonio Duque-Cá-ceres (“Duque”), a native and citizen of Venezuela, seeks review of a final order of deportation issued by the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”). The BIA dismissed his appeal of the Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) decision denying Duque’s application for a waiver of the joint filing requirements to remove the conditions of his residency (“1-751 waiver”).

Because the administrative record provides substantial support for the findings of both the IJ and the BIA, and does not compel a contrary conclusion, we deny Du-que’s petition for review.
