United States Second Circuit

In a petition for review of a judgment of the BIA denying petitioner's request for a continuance while petitioner, a native and citizen of Brazil, sought adjustment of his status before the USCIS, petition is granted where denial of request on the basis that the BIA lacked the authority to grant the continuance constitutes legal error.
