United States First Circuit

Petition for review of an IJ order pretermitting petitioner's application for adjustment of status and declaring him removable from the U.S. after he overstayed a period of voluntary departure is denied over petitioner's arguments that: 1) the filing of a motion to reopen tolled the running of the voluntary departure period; and 2) the BIA's allowance of the motion to reopen stripped the voluntary departure order of any legal significance.
