U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit
Heraclio Torres-Jimenez v. Todd Blanche
August 19, 2026
Summary
The court denied Torres-Jimenez's petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' denial of his motion to reopen and terminate removal proceedings. It held that he failed to make the required prima facie showing for adjustment of status because his motion provided only bare references to pending VAWA and adjustment applications and did not address immediate visa availability. The court declined to consider his visa-availability arguments because he had not presented them to the Board.
