United States Second Circuit
Cruz-Miguel et al v. Holder, 09-3155, 09-3156, 09-3157, 09-5176
In a petition for review of a BIA judgment holding that petitioners, citizens of Mexico and Guatemala, are statutorily ineligible for adjustment of status because their release on conditional parole under INA section 236(a)(2)(B) does not qualify them as paroled into the United States, petition is denied because statutory language makes it plain that an alien released on conditional parole pending resolution of ongoing removal proceedings is not thereby paroled into the United States so as to be eligible for adjustment of status.
