United States Third Circuit


Nelson v. Attorney General of the US, 11-1654

Petition for review of the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals, which concluded that Jamaican petitioner had not accumulated the seven years of continuous residence in the US necessary to be eligible for cancellation of removal under 8 U.S.C. section 1229b, is denied where: 1) the BIA did not act unreasonably in concluding that Okeke did not control the outcome in this case; and 2) the BIA's conclusion that petitioner's reentry did not restart the clock is reasonable.
