Shouchen Yang v. Lynch, 822 F.3d 504 (9th Cir. 2016) (Oral argument). The Ninth Circuit reversed the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) denial of asylum-seeker’s motion to reopen case and held that because the BIA cannot make adverse credibility determinations in denying a motion to reopen, the BIA also cannot apply the maxim “falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus” to deny motions to reopen.
