United States Second Circuit

Petition for review of a final order of removal by the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) is denied in part and dismissed in part where: 1) petitioner's status was terminated by law in March 1999; 2) petitioner was therefore ineligible for cancellation of removal; and 3) the burden of proof rested on petitioner in the proceedings before the immigration judge.
