The LAC submitted an amicus brief on behalf of AILF, Greater Boston Legal Services and the Harvard Immigration and Refugee Clinic in an asylum case that is being reheard en banc in the First Circuit. The amicus brief sets forth a framework for when the court should remand a case for further review and when outright reversal is appropriate. It argues that the panel’s decision to reverse the BIA was proper.
