Singh v. Gonzales
Opinion
Lead Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
The IJ found petitioner not credible because, among other things, petitioner testified inconsistently with respect to the sequence of key events in his persecution story. The record does not compel a contrary conclusion, and we have repeatedly upheld an IJ’s adverse credibility finding based on inconsistencies in the details of a petitioner’s persecution story. See, e.g., Chebchoub v. INS, 257 F.3d 1038, 1043 (9th Cir.2001) (inconsistent number of times petitioner was arrested); Singh-Kaur v. INS, 183 F.3d 1147, 1151 (9th Cir.1999) (“different versions of how the *680 names of the police officers came to the attention of the superintendent of police”).
The IJ granted voluntary departure for a 60-day period, and the BIA changed the voluntary departure period to 30 days. But, “because the BIA issued a streamlined order, it was required to affirm the entirety of the IJ’s decision, including the length of the voluntary departure period.” Padilla-Padilla v. Gonzales, 463 F.3d 972, 981 (9th Cir.2006). We therefore remand to the agency for further proceedings regarding voluntary departure.
DENIED in part, GRANTED in part and REMANDED.
