7th Circuit Court of Appeals
Case Name: Jesus Delgado-Arteaga v. Jeff Sessions
Case No.: 16-1816
Officials: BAUER, FLAUM, and HAMILTON, Circuit Judges
Focus: Immigration – Removal Proceedings
Over seven years and three petitions later, these proceedings have come to a conclusion. Petitioner, Jesus Delgado-Arteaga (“Delgado”), petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ decision affirming the immigration judge’s denial of withholding of removal, 8 U.S.C. § 1231(b)(3), and relief under the Convention Against Torture, 8 C.F.R. § 1208.16(c). Delgado challenges aspects of the expedited removal process under 8 U.S.C. § 1228(b) and a corresponding regulation, 8 C.F.R. § 1208.31(g)(2)(i). He also claims that the Board committed various legal errors. For the following reasons, we dismiss the petition for review in part for lack of jurisdiction and deny the remainder of his petition for review.
