George v. United States

Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) for asylum or withholding of deportation.

Holdings:
The
Virginia Court made the following holding:
- The Immigration and
Nationality Act (Act), 8 U.S.C.S. §§ 1101-1537, provides two routes to
avoid deportation for an otherwise deportable alien who claims he will be
persecuted if he returns to his home country. First, an alien can apply
for asylum. 8 U.S.C.S. § 1158(a). The attorney general has authority,
under 8 U.S.C.S. § 1158(b)(1), to confer asylum on an alien if she
concludes the alien is a refugee as defined by the Act. A refugee is
anyone unwilling or unable to return to his native country because of
persecution or a well-founded fear of persecution on account of race,
religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or
political opinion. 8 U.S.C.S. § 1101(a)(42)(A). To establish a
well-founded fear of persecution, the alien must show: (1) that a
reasonable person in the circumstances would fear persecution, and (2)
that the fear has some basis in the reality of the circumstances and is
validated with specific, concrete facts. The fear must be appreciably
different from the dangers faced by the alien's fellow citizens.
- An alien claiming persecution can also avoid deportation through the provision known as withholding of deportation, under which the attorney general will not deport an alien upon finding that the alien's life or freedom would be threatened there because of his race, religion, nationality, membership in a social group, or political opinion. 8 U.S.C.S. § 1253(h). The alien must demonstrate a clear probability of persecution based on one of these factors. If an alien is unable to establish his right to asylum, he will be unable to meet this stricter standard for withholding of deportation.
