United States First Circuit


Acosta v. Lynch, 14-1810

In a petition for review of a Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) decision that petitioner is removable as an alien present in the U.S. without being admitted or paroled under Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) section 212(a)(6)(A)(i), 8 U.S.C. section 1182(a)(6)(A)(i), the petition is denied where petitioner has failed to explain the many inconsistencies in his travel documentation, and neither the IJ nor BIA erred in crediting the Government's substantial evidence rebutting petitioner's own account.
