Regina Salta v. Immigration and Naturalization Service

Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

Decided December 30, 2002No. 01-71537PublishedCited by 126 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

MICHAEL DALY HAWKINS, Circuit Judge:

We must determine whether the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) erred in applying presumptions and burdens of proof tailored to a statute requiring notice by certified mail, where notice was given pursuant to an amended version of the statute allowing the use of regular mail. Because we determine that Petitioner’s lack of notice claim should be considered at an evidentiary hearing applying standards attuned to the amended statute, we grant the petition for review.
