7th Circuit Court of Appeals
Case Name: Jose Antonio Simental-Galarza v. William P. Barr
Case No.: 19-2126
Officials: RIPPLE, SYKES, and ST. EVE, Circuit Judges.
Focus: Immigration – Removal Order
Jose Antonio Simental-Galarza, a 36-year-old citizen of Mexico, seeks relief from removal, contending that he is a battered spouse and would suffer extreme hardship if removed. The Immigration Judge and the Board of Immigration Appeals ruled that Simental-Galarza did not qualify for relief because he did not establish hardship. Because the IJ and Board adequately evaluated the relevant factors and the evidence that Simental-Galarza presented, we deny the petition for review.
Petition Denied
