Description
Petitioners, Igli Filja, his wife, Luljeta Filja, and his son, Endrit Filja, petition for review of a February 23, 2004, decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (the "BIA" or "Board") denying petitioners motion to reopen a previous decision of the Board affirming an Immigration Judges ("IJ") decision denying petitioners requests for asylum and withholding of deportation. We hold that the BIA misinterpreted the time limitation found in 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3)(ii) for motions to reopen due to changed country conditions and that its denial of the motion on other grounds was an abuse of discretion. We will grant the petition and remand the matter to the BIA for further proceedings.
