United States v. Roccisano, 673 F.3d 153 (2d Cir.

Leslie v. Attorney General, 2012 WL 898614 (3d Cir. Mar. 19, 2012) (unpublished) (noncitizen was entitled to an individualized bond hearing, to determine whether continued immigration detention was necessary, where the detention was "pre-removal" under 8 U.S.C. 1226, rather than "post-removal" under 8 U.S.C. 1331, and thus could not exceed a reasonable length of time).

Gonzalez v. Secy of Dept of Homeland Security, 2012 WL 898609 (3d Cir. Mar. 19, 2012) (unpublished) (the jurisdiction vested in district courts by 8 U.S.C. 1421(c) to review naturalization denials is not divested by the priority given to removal proceedings under 8 U.S.C. 1429; district court may grant declaratory relief in the naturalization case notwithstanding the role it may play in terminating a removal proceeding).

Vera v. Atty General, 672 F.3d 187 (3d Cir. Mar. 1, 2012) (court may presume visa waiver entrant executed the statutorily required waiver of her right to challenge removal; even if waiver was not signed or invalid, prejudice must also be shown).

Bracamontes v. Holder, 675 F.3d 380 (4th Cir. Mar. 29, 2012) (aggravated felony bar on eligibility for a waiver under INA 212(h) applies only to people who entered the United States as lawful permanent residents, not to those who later adjusted status to become lawful permanent residents); Lanier v. U.S. Attorney General, 631 F.3d 1363, 1366 (11th Cir. 2011); Martinez v. Mukasey, 519 F.3d 532, 546 (5th Cir. 2008); Hing Sum v.

United States v. Castillo-Pena, 674 F.3d 318 (4th Cir. Mar. 22, 2012) (the "cumulative context" in which noncitizen's statements were made provided a substantial foundation for the jury's conclusion of willful misrepresentation).

United States v. Juarez, 672 F.3d 381 (5th Cir. Feb. 24, 2012) (convictions for illegal reentry, under 8 U.S.C. 1326, and false claim to United States citizenship, under 18 U.S.C. 911, vacated for ineffective assistance of counsel in failing to investigate plausible derivative citizenship claim).

Delgado v. Holder, 674 F.3d 759 (7th Cir. Mar. 22, 2012) (IJ's behavior did not prevent the petitioner from having a reasonable opportunity to present his case, nor was the petitioner prejudiced by the exclusion of testimony that he argued was inappropriately excluded).

Munoz-Pacheco v. Holder, 673 F.3d 741 (7th Cir. Mar. 14, 2012) (court lacks jurisdiction to review hardship discretionary issue).
