View this case - free  

Overview: Alien's petition for review of final order of removal was denied; the claim that a 1994 drug conviction was not an aggravated felony was not exhausted, even if a 2003 conviction was on appeal, the 1994 conviction precluded cancellation of removal on a 2001 conviction, and habeas proceeding was the proper venue for post-removal detention issues.
