CA2 on Credibility: Belkaniya v. Garland

Belkaniya v. Garland (unpub.)

"We grant Belkaniya’s petition because we find error in the agency’s consideration of one inconsistency and cannot be confident that the agency would draw an adverse credibility determination on the basis of the remaining inconsistencies. ... The petition for review is GRANTED, the agency’s decisions are VACATED, and the case is REMANDED. All pending motions and applications are DENIED and stays VACATED."

[Hats off to Alexander J. Segal!]
