United States Ninth Circuit
Eleri v. Sessions, 13-73455
In a petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' decision finding petitioner ineligible for a waiver of inadmissibility under the aggravated felony bar, the petition is denied where: 1) because petitioner was admitted to the U.S. as a conditional permanent resident, he is 'an alien who has previously been admitted to the U.S. as an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence'; and thus 2) petitioner was ineligible for a waiver of inadmissibility pursuant to 8 U.S.C. section 1182(h) because he had an aggravated felony conviction.
