United States Sixth Circuit


Sakarapanee v. Dep't of Homeland Sec., 09-6197

District court's dismissal of a Thai citizen's petition contesting the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services' (USCIS) denial of his application for naturalization on the ground that he had previously sought and received an early discharge from the United States Navy based on his status as an alien, is affirmed as the plain language of INA section 329 defeats petitioner's proferred interpretation.
