Description
PETITION FOR REVIEW OF AN ORDER OF THE BOARD OF IMMIGRATION APPEALS The Board of Immigration Appeals found that Alwyn Colin Griffiths had been ""convicted"" of a firearms violation and ordered him deported under § 241(a)(2)(C) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, previously codified at 8 U.S.C. § 1251(a)(2)(C). The BIA also denied his request for discretionary relief from deportation. Griffiths challenges whether the ""guilty-filed"" disposition of his firearms violation under Massachusetts law was sufficiently final to constitute a ""conviction"" within the meaning of the INA. Petitioner also challenges the BIA's failure to address his request for a § 212(h) waiver and the denial of his request for voluntary departure under § 242. We remand the case to the BIA.
