U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit

Joel Ruelas-Manzo v. Attorney General United States of America

August 21, 2026

Summary

The court denied the petition for review of the denial of cancellation of removal. It held that Manzo forfeited his challenge to the agency's hardship determination and, alternatively, that substantial evidence supported the conclusion that his removal would not cause his children exceptional and extremely unusual hardship. The court also rejected his argument concerning consideration of his wife's employment, assuming without deciding that the argument was exhausted.
