In re: MA EVELYN V ALDEMOR
IN REMOVAL PROCEEDINGS
APPEAL
Decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals
Date:
ON BEHALF OF RESPONDENT: Margaret Hobbins, Esquire
ON BEHALF OF DHS:
APPLICATION: Termination
Randolph N. Blair, Jr. Assistant Chief Counsel
The respondent, a citizen and native of the Philippines, has appealed from the November 28, 2012, decision of the Immigration Judge ordering her removed, and an underlying decision dated September 8, 2011, denying her motion to suppress evidence and terminate proceedings. The Department of Homeland Security has filed a brief in opposition to the appeal. The record will be remanded for further proceedings.
We review the findings of fact, including the determination of credibility, made by the Immigration Judge under a "clearly erroneous" standard. 8 C.F.R. § 1003.l(d)(3)(i). We review all other issues, including whether the parties have met the relevant burden of proof, and issues of discretion, under a de novo standard. 8 C.F.R. § 1003.l(d)(3)(ii).
In his September 2011 decision, the Immigration Judge stated only that the "motion is the same motion with the same facts as the case of Marilyn Hernandez Magsino," denying the motion, "[f]or the same reasons set forth in that case." The Immigration Judge's evaluation of the evidence and legal analysis is cursory and precludes us from meaningfully reviewing the merits of his determination. See Matter of A-P-, 22 I&N Dec. 468 (BIA 1999) (an oral decision must summarize the relevant facts, reflect the Immigration Judge's analysis of the applicable statutes, regulations, and legal precedents, and clearly set forth the Immigration Judge's legal conclusion).
Accordingly, the record will be remanded to allow the Immigration Judge to issue a separate decision addressing the respondent's motion to suppress and terminate. The Immigration Judge should address the specific arguments raised in the respondent's motion to suppress evidence and terminate proceedings, and provide adequate reasons for his decision. See Matter of A-P-, 22 I&N Dec. 468 (BIA 1999) (holding that because the Board's fact-finding ability is limited, it is essential for Immigration Judges to include in their decisions clear and complete findings of fact that are supported by the record and are in compliance with controlling law).
