In re: JIN WEI GAO

IN REMOVAL PROCEEDINGS

MOTION

ON BEHALF OF RESPONDENT: Kimberly S. Ellis, Esquire

ON BEHALF OF DHS: Theresa Bross

Assistant Chief Counsel

APPLICATION: Reopening; termination

ORDER:

The respondent has filed a motion to reopen and terminate these deportation proceedings based

on the respondent's acquisition of asylee status under section 208 of the Immigration and

Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. 1158. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) filed a brief in

opposition to the motion. Considering the respondent's present status as an asylee in this country

and the circumstances presented, the proceedings are reopened under the provisions of 8 C.F.R.

I003.2(a), and terminated without prejudice. The record is returned to the Immigration Court

without further action.
