Constitutional Issues
1. Immigration and Naturalization Service v. Ventura
2.  This case was decided on Novemeber 4 2002
3.  In 1993, Fredy Orlando Ventura came to the United States illegally because he claimed that his political views made him a target for guerilla armies in Guatemala. In 1998 he requested for asylum which would grant him protection by the nation but the judge denied his request because the political enviroment in Guatemala had changed between the five year time period from when Ventura had arrived. Different opinions between the Board of Immigration apppeals and the U.S Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit lead to not being on the same page and a little conflict.
4.  Should an appellate court remand a case to an agency when additional investigation within the agency’s area of expertise may be required?
5.  A factual determination by the BIA must be upheld if it is supported by reasonable, substantial, and probative evidence on the record considered as a whole.
6.  The court concluded that Ventura was eligible for asylum and he is also entitled to withholding of deportation because after further looking into the evidence, they determined that Venturas life and family would be in danger. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit was “compelled” by Orlando Ventura’s testimony to reverse the lower court’s decision and denied remand to the Board of Immigration Appeals.
7. The Court of Appeals should stick with and continue using the “remand rule” which has already been set
8. I agree with this decision because as presented in this case the new evidence helped with making the ultimate decision and if the “normal” or right way of going at it was to remand and take the case back to the lower court for reconsideration, then that should have been done in the first place.

Senator OBA vs Bassey Etim, Ors 
At the resumed hearing of the Appeal by Senator Bassey Albert (against the judgment of the Federal High Court sitting in uyo in favour of Mr. Bassey Etim) the court frowned at the attitude of counsel to wait for the eleventh hour to file processes  in the apppeal CAC/C/104/2017 which was filed by the PDP against the same judgment, therefore making it impossible…

“Rev v. William Martinow - At Osgoode Hall,” Toronto Globe. April 26, 1932. Page 10. --- Apppeal by accused from his conviction before Raney, J., at Brantford, on March 23, on a charge of offering a bribe to a peace officer. Accused was charged with having approached the Police Court Clerk, and reported and requested that he should make certain evidence look good for him, and he would see that he ‘ot a good holiday.’ He was sentenced to two years’ imprisonment, and appealed on the ground that the alleged attempt to bribe was not of an officer as covered by Section 137 of the Criminal Code and that there was no evidence that the accused knew the official position of the person approached.
