BOLANOS-HERNANDEZ v. I.N.S.

No. 83-7608.

749 F.2d 1316 (1984)

Espectacion BOLANOS-HERNANDEZ, Petitioner, v. IMMIGRATION & NATURALIZATION SERVICE, Respondent.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Decided December 19, 1984.

As Amended March 1, 1985.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Eliseo Z. Sisneros, California Rural Legal Assistance Foundation, Berkeley Law Foundation, El Centro, Cal., Paula D. Pearlman, Imperial Valley Immigration Project, Centro Asuntos Migratorios, El Centro, Cal., for Espectacion Bolanos.

Madelyn E. Johnson, Dept. of Justice, Washington, D.C., for respondent.

Before ELY, FLETCHER, and REINHARDT, Circuit Judges.

REINHARDT, Circuit Judge:

Espectacion Bolanos-Hernandez petitions for review of the Immigration and Naturalization Service's denial of his application for "withholding of deportation" and political asylum. We find that the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals is not supported by substantial evidence. Bolanos meets both the clear probability and well-founded fear of persecution standards. He therefore may not be deported and is eligible for asylum.
