Singh v. Gonzales
Singh v. Gonzales
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Petitioner Bhupinder Singh seeks review of the decision by the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) affirming
Adverse credibility findings are reviewed under the deferential substantial evidence standard and will be upheld unless the evidence compels a contrary result. Tawadrus v. Ashcroft, 364 F.3d 1099, 1102 (9th Cir. 2004). Where the BIA affirms the decision of the immigration judge without opinion, the court treats the immigration judge’s decision as the final agency determination. Falcon Carriche v. Ashcroft, 350 F.3d 845, 849 (9th Cir. 2003).
Singh’s testimony at the hearing contained numerous inconsistencies concerning his name, birth, religious practices, and entry into the United States: Because the evidence does not compel a contrary result, the decision of the immigration judge was supported by substantial evidence.
PETITION DENIED.
