Ninth Circuit -- YAO REN V. ERIC H. HOLDER JR.

YAO REN V. ERIC H. HOLDER JR.

Although ILJ's adverse credibility decisions were not supported by substantial evidence (e.g. asking Chinese Christian to recite "the Lord's Prayer"), when petitioner didn't provide corroborating evidence within time frame, the claim was properly forfeited.  
Compiled by D.E. Frydrychowski, who is, not incidentally, not giving you legal advice.
