U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit

Hernandez Hernandez v. Blanche

September 4, 2026

Summary

The Tenth Circuit denied Julio Cesar Hernandez's petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' denial of his cancellation of removal application, affirming the immigration judge's finding that the hardship to his U.S.-citizen son was not "exceptional and extremely unusual." The court applied a deferential standard of review to the mixed question of law and fact and found no error in the judge's application of the statutory standard.
