Soundone v. Ashcroft
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
Soundone v. Ashcroft, 109 F. App'x 705 (5th Cir. 2004)
Soundone v. Ashcroft
Opinion
Si Soundone, a native and citizen of Laos, petitions this court for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (BIA) decision denying his application for asylum and withholding of deportation. In rejecting Soundone’s appeal, the BIA adopted the Immigration Judge’s (IJ) findings that Soundone lacked credibility. We hold that the IJ’s credibility findings were reason *706 able and supported by substantial evidence. See Chun v. INS, 40 F.3d 76, 79 (5th Cir. 1994). Accordingly, Soundone’s petition for review is DENIED.
*
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
