United States First Circuit

In Armenian citizens' motion to reopen their asylum claim, after their initial claim was denied in 1997, the BIA's denial of the petition is stayed for 90 days to allow for the son to apply relief where the son has a more promising chance for relief under the Morton Memo, having entered the United States as a young child and pursued his education in this country, and being blamed for remaining in the country despite the BIA's removal order.
