Angela Ching-Yee Chan v. George K. Rosenberg, District Director, Immigration and Naturalization Service
Angela Ching-Yee CHAN, Petitioner, v. George K. ROSENBERG, District Director, Immigration and Naturalization Service, Respondent
Opinion
PER CURIAM:
Petitioner seeks reversal of the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals denying her motion to reopen deportation proceedings to enable her to apply for suspension of deportation under 8 U.S.C. § 1254 (a) (1). The Board ruled that petitioner, who had remained in the United States in a protected status, had not presented facts excepting her from the doctrine articulated in Matter of Lee (B.I.A. 11 I. & N. Dec. 649 ).
In Asimakopoulos v. I&NS (9th Cir. 1971) 445 F.2d 1362 (No. 26,616, 1971), we overruled Matter of Lee because it conflicted with section 1254(a) (1).
The judgment is reversed and the cause remanded for further proceedings not inconsistent with the views expressed in Asimakopoulos.
