United States Sixth Circuit

A petition for review of a denial of an application for asylum and withholding of removal based on alleged persecution in Albania is denied where: 1) an adverse credibility determination did not constitute reversible error; 2) there was a sufficient basis for the exclusion of certain documents; and 3) substantial evidence supported a conclusion that changed country conditions refuted any presumption of a well-founded fear of future persecution, and thus, any errors on the issues of credibility and certain documents were harmless.
