Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit July 21, 2003, No. 02-71162; Agency No. A75-250-616 (Baluyot v. Ashcroft)

MEMORANDUM**

Petitioner Erlinda Baluyot appeals the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) which affirmed the Immigration Judge’s order denying her requests for asylum, withholding of removal, and voluntary departure.1

First, Baluyot argues that the BIA abused its discretion in finding that she did not establish a “well-founded fear” of persecution.
