United States Seventh Circuit


Bolante v. Keisler, 07-2550

A motion for release on bail by an asylum applicant is denied where: 1) a grant of a bail would conflict with the Attorney General's non-reviewable discretion to deny parole to asylum-seekers; and 2) the petitioner's entry visa was revoked prior to his arrival in the U.S., thus he was not lawfully admitted to the U.S. for constitutional purposes, and had no right to be released.
