Oscar Bolanes-Blanco v. Eric H. Holder Jr.

FILED NOT FOR PUBLICATION APR 22 2011 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS U .S. C O U R T OF APPE ALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT OSCAR DANIEL BOLANES-BLANCO, No. 08-71836 a.k.a. Oscar Bolanos, Agency No. A029-769-354 Petitioner, v. MEMORANDUM * ERIC H. HOLDER, Jr., Attorney General, Respondent. On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Submitted April 20, 2011 ** Before: RYMER, THOMAS, and PAEZ, Circuit Judges. Oscar Daniel Bolanes-Blanco, a native and citizen of Nicaragua, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reopen. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We grant the petition for review and remand. * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). The BIA denied Bolanes-Blanco’s motion to reopen without the benefit of our decision in Coyt v. Holder, 593 F.3d 902 (9th Cir. 2010), in which we concluded that 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(d) did not apply to cause the withdrawal of a motion to reopen filed by a petitioner who subsequently has been removed from the United States. See Coyt, 593 F.3d at 906-07. We remand in light of this intervening case law for the BIA to reconsider Bolanes-Blanco’s motion, including, if necessary, whether the 90-day filing limitation should be equitably tolled. We construe Bolanes-Blanco’s letter of January 26, 2009, as a motion to supplement the record. So construed, the motion is denied as moot. PETITION FOR REVIEW GRANTED; REMANDED. 2 08-71836
