United States Fourth Circuit

A petition for review of the final order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA), affirming petitioner's ineligibility for a "special rule" cancellation of removal under section 203 of the Nicaraguan and Central American Relief Act of 1997, is denied, as petitioner's support of an anti-government Salvadoran guerrillas of the so-called "FMLN" guerrillas falls under the Material Support Bar, even though that support was rendered involuntary and provided to the FMLN guerrillas under duress.
