Mshihiri v. Holder, Jr., No. 13-2226 (8th Cir. 2014)
Annotate this CasePetitioner, a native and citizen of Tanzania, sought review of several of the BIA's orders. The court concluded that the court's jurisdiction was limited to reviewing the BIA's denial of petitioner's motion to reopen and reconsider (May 6 order). Because the BIA did not abuse its discretion by denying petitioner's motion, the court denied the petition for review. The court granted, however, petitioner's motion for leave to file a reply brief out of time.
Court Description: Petition for Review - Immigration. Court's jurisdiction was limited to review the BIA's order denying petitioner's motion to reopen and reconsider as the petition for review was untimely as to BIA's order upholding the Immigration Judge's denial of relief and order of removal; BIA did not abuse its discretion by denying the motion to reopen and reconsider.
