(C)  Good Moral Character.  Many forms of relief require a showing of Good Moral Character during a specified period by the applicant.  See § 15.6, infra. A child who is under 14 years of age is presumed to be a person of Good Moral Character.[263]  However, there is no such presumption when a minor noncitizen is tried as an adult, but serves a sentence in juvenile hall.[264]

Mar. 20, 2008) (BIA did not err in refusing to impute to a noncitizen who entered the United States as a minor the parent's years of continuous residence in order to meet the seven-year requirement for cancellation of removal), declining to follow Cuevas-Gaspar v.

INS, 90 F.3d 833 (3d Cir. 1996), vacated on other grounds, 144 F.3d 248 (3d Cir. 1998) (imputing presence in INA 212(c) context).
