Vorfa v. Holder
Opinion of the Court
SUMMARY ORDER
Manila and Zamir Vorfa, wife and husband, petition for review of a July 23, 2007, decision of the BIA denying them applications for asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture. We assume the parties’ familiarity with the underlying facts, the procedural history, and the issues on appeal.
Petitioners challenge the adverse credibility determination made by the Immigration Judge (“IJ”), arguing that it is contradicted by the record. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(4)(B) (“[Administrative findings of fact are conclusive unless any reasonable adjudicator would be compelled to conclude to the contrary.”); see also Dong Zhong Zheng v. Mukasey, 552 F.3d 277, 284 (2d Cir. 2009) (“We review ... factual findings, including adverse credibility determinations, under the substantial evidence standard, treating them as conclusive unless any reasonable adjudicator would be compelled to conclude to the contrary.” (internal citations and quotation marks omitted)). We disagree. The IJ properly based his adverse credibility de
For the foregoing reasons, the petition for review is DENIED. As we have completed our review, any stay of removal that the Court previously granted in this petition is VACATED, and any pending motion for a stay of removal in this petition is DISMISSED as moot.
