7^th Circuit Court of Appeals

Case Name: Jesus Antonio Cruz-Martinez v. Jefferson B. Sessions III

Case No.: 14-3754

Officials: FLAUM, EASTERBROOK, and MANION, Circuit Judges.

Focus: Immigration – Asylum Claim

Jesus Antonio Cruz-Martinez petitions this Court to review the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) affirming the decision of the Immigration Judge (IJ). Cruz-Martinez argues on appeal that the Board erred by failing to consider his asylum claim and the reinstatement of his prior order of removal, denying him withholding of removal and protection under the Convention Against Torture (CAT), and violating his right to due process by refusing to remand his case to the IJ for consideration of new evidence. We conclude his challenges are meritless and deny the petition for review.
