United States Eighth Circuit

In a petition for review of the BIA's denial of petitioner's application for cancellation of removal on the basis that he failed to prove that he had been continuously physically present in the U.S. for ten years, the petition is denied where: 1) petitioner failed to provide reasonably available corroborative evidence; and 2) petitioner lacked a protected due process interest in the ultimately discretionary relief of cancellation of removal.
