Description

Oyenike Alaka petitions for review of a final order of removal issued by the Board of Immigration Appeals (?BIA?). We conclude that it erred in affirming the decision of an immigration judge (?IJ?) that Alaka was ineligible for withholding of removal as a person convicted of a ?particularly serious crime.? Accordingly (and after concluding that we have jurisdiction), we grant the petition for review of her withholding of removal claim, vacate the BIA?s decision on this issue, and remand to the BIA for further proceedings. As we do not have jurisdiction to consider the BIA?s conclusion, in affirming the IJ, that Alaka abandoned her lawful permanent resident status, we dismiss her petition for cancellation of removal and relief under former ? 212(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (?INA?).
