Moosa v. Holder, No. 10-1932 (7th Cir. 2011)
Annotate this CaseThe petitioner overstayed her visa. At a removal hearing she asserted a Fifth Amendment claim and would not answer questions, but did not request asylum or indicate any fear of return to Pakistan. Following a removal order, she remained. She moved to reopen her case seven years later. The Board of Immigration Appeals rejected a "changed conditions" argument for asylum. The Seventh Circuit affirmed. The Board correctly assessed both the claim of changed conditions in Pakistan and the merits of the petitioner's case and did not deprive her of due process. Her claims concerning her status as an unmarried, "westernized" woman were too speculative.
