Juana Gutierrez-Garcia v. Jefferson B. Sessions, III

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Guatemalan citizen Juana Gutierrez-Garcia petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals dismissing her appeal from a decision of an immigration judge (IJ), denying, protection under the Convention Against Torture as well as asylum and withholding of removal. Having jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252, this court denies the petition.

The court concludes that the IJ gave an adequate explanation for the adverse credibility determination, the determination was supported by substantial evidence, and a reasonable adjudicator would not be compelled to reach a contrary conclusion. See Fesehaye v. Holder, 607 F.3d 523, 526-27 (8th Cir. 2010).

The petition is denied. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
