GARLAND, UNITED 19 STATES ATTORNEY GENERAL, 20 Respondent. 21 _____________________________________ 22 23 FOR PETITIONER: Jean Wang, Esq., Wang Law Office, 24 PLLC, Flushing, NY. 25 26 FOR RESPONDENT: Joseph H. Hunt, Assistant 27 Attorney General; Jessica E. 28 Burns, Senior Litigation Counsel; 29 Claire L. Workman, Senior 30 Litigation Counsel, Office of 1 Immigration Litigation, United 2 States Department of Justice, 3 Washington, DC. 4 5 UPON DUE CONSIDERATION of this petition for review of a 6 Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) decision, it is hereby 7 ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED that the petition for review 8 is GRANTED. 9 Petitioner Wei Sun Bin, a native and citizen of the 10 People’s Republic of China, seeks review of a June 10, 2019, 11 decision of the BIA denying his motion to reconsider and 12 reopen.
