Robu v. Mukasey
Robu v. Mukasey
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Claudia Mihaela Robu, a native and citizen of Romania, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) decision adopting and affirming the Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) denial of her applications for asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence, INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478, 481 & n. 1, 112 S.Ct. 812, 117 L.Ed.2d 38 (1992), and we grant the petition for review in part, deny it in part and remand for further proceedings.
Accordingly, we grant the petition for review on the asylum and withholding claims and remand to the BIA for further proceedings consistent with this disposition. See INS v. Ventura, 537 U.S. 12, 16-18, 123 S.Ct. 353, 154 L.Ed.2d 272 (2002) (per curiam).
Robu failed to establish a CAT claim because she did not show that it was more likely than not that she would be tortured if returned to Romania. See Kamalthas v. INS, 251 F.3d 1279, 1283-84 (9th Cir. 2001).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; GRANTED in part and REMANDED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
