United States Ninth Circuit

In a petition for review of an order of the BIA, petition is denied because the grant of employment authorization, pending the approval of adjustment of status under 8 U.S.C. section 1255, does not confer admission status on an undocumented alien for purposes of calculating seven years of continuous residence under 8 U.S.C. section 1229b(a)(2).
