In re: LAMIN MANJANG IN REMOVAL PROCEEDINGS APPEAL ON BEHALF OF RESPONDENT: ON BEHALF OF DHS: Pro se

Immigrant & Refugee Appellate Center | www.irac.net

Scott D. Criss Assistant Chief Counsel

The respondent has appealed from the Immigration Judge's decision dated January 5, 2012. The Immigration Judge did not prepare a separate oral or written decision in this matter setting forth the reasons for his decision ordering the respondent removed to the Gambia. The explanation of the reasons contained in the transcript is not sufficient pursuant to our decision in Matter ofA-P-, 22 I&N Dec. 468 (BIA 1999), which requires that the record include a complete decision of the Immigration Judge in a manner that clearly separates it from the transcript of the proceedings. The Board is unable to review this case effectively without a complete record of proceedings which should include a decision setting forth the Immigration Judge's findings of fact and conclusions of law, including with respect to the respondent's removability. Under these circumstances, we find it appropriate to remand the record to the Immigration Judge for preparation of a full decision. See Matter ofA-P-, supra. In particular, with respect to the Department of Homeland Security's charges of removability and the respondent's claims to adjustment of status, the Immigration Judge should consider this Board's decisions in Matter ofSilitonga, 25 I&N Dec. 89 (BIA 2009), and Matter ofArrabally & Yerrabe/ly, 25 I&N 1 Dec. 771 (BIA 2012). The respondent and the Department of Homeland Security should be served with a copy of the decision and should thereafter be given an opportunity to submit briefs in accordance with the regulations. Accordingly, the following order will be entered. ORDER: The record is remanded e Immigration Court for further proceedings

consistent with the foregoing decision.

After

reviewing

this

Board's

decisions

in

Matter

of

Silitonga

and

Matter ofArrabally & Yerrabelly, the Immigration Judge may, if appropriate, reconsider his prior decision and reopen these proceedings for further development of the record.
