View this case - free  

Overview: District court erred in granting plaintiffs' motion for certification under Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b).

View this case - free  

Overview: The BIA properly denied an alien asylum on account of the forced abortion of a woman he considered his wife because he did not demonstrate that residing with and impregnating his fiance alone constituted "other resistance" to a coercive population control program or that he faced the possibility of sterilization in China.
