Singh v. Garland, No. 19-60937 (5th Cir. 2021)
Annotate this CaseThe Fifth Circuit denied a petition for review challenging the BIA's decision affirming the denial of petitioner's applications for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture (CAT). While the court has misgivings about the IJ's reliance on inter-proceeding evidence under Matter of R-K-K-, 26 I&N Dec. 658 (BIA 2015), the court concluded that the judge's credibility findings were otherwise supported by substantial evidence and that petitioner's due process claims based on the IJ's alleged bias lacked merit. The court further concluded that the BIA did not abuse its discretion by denying petitioner's motion to remand to consider new evidence.
