U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit
Jose Aristy-Rosa v. Attorney General United States of America
September 1, 2026
Summary
The court denied review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ denial of statutory motions to reopen and reconsider a 2011 consent removal order. It held that a change in law is not a permissible basis for statutory reopening, and that the petitioner’s statutory reconsideration motion was untimely and did not warrant equitable tolling. The court dismissed for lack of jurisdiction the challenge to the Board’s refusal to reopen sua sponte.
