MENDOZA PEREZ v. U.S.I.N.S.

No. 89-70035.

902 F.2d 760 (1990)

Wilfredo MENDOZA PEREZ, Petitioner, v. U.S. IMMIGRATION AND NATURALIZATION SERVICE, Respondent.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Decided May 7, 1990.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Carolyn P. Blum, Asylum Appeals Clinic, Boalt Hall School of Law, Berkeley, Cal., Sergio Garcia-Rodriguez Heller, Ehrman, White & McAuliffe, San Francisco, Cal., for petitioner.

Alice M. Smith and Mark Walters, Office of Immigration Litigation, Civ. Div., U.S. Dept. of Justice, Washington, D.C., for respondent.

Before SNEED, FARRIS and FERNANDEZ, Circuit Judges.


FARRIS, Circuit Judge:

Mr. Mendoza appeals the denial of his request for withholding of deportation and his application for political asylum. At issue is whether there was substantial evidence on which the Board of Immigration Appeals could affirm the Immigration Judge's finding that Mendoza did not establish either a "clear probability of persecution" or a "well-founded fear" of persecution.
