REMOVAL PROCEEDINGS " EVIDENCE " UNCERTIFIED FACSIMILE COPY OF PLEA TRANSCRIPT HELD ADMISSIBLE
Padilla-Martinez v. Holder, ___ F.3d ___, 2014 WL 5421219 (9th Cir. Oct. 27, 2014) (failure to fully comply with the terms of the statute and regulation [8 U.S.C. 1229a(c)(3); 8 C.F.R. 1003.41] does not render electronic conviction records inadmissible; holding admissible an uncertified facsimile copy of a transcript of the state court felony change-of-plea proceedings to establish drug-trafficking aggravated felony conviction); citing Sinotes"Cruz v. Gonzales, 468 F.3d 1190, 1195"96 (9th Cir. 2006) (admitting copies of criminal convictions that were stamped by an immigration agent and appeared to be official state-court records even though certification by a state official was lacking); 8 U.S.C. 1229a(c)(3)(C) instead establishes the maximum standard for authentication of electronically transmitted records of conviction, but it does not establish a minimum standard. The BIA may therefore admit evidence under either the requirements of the INA statute or through any procedure that comports with common law rules of evidence. [Admissibility is generally warranted so long as there is] some sort of proof that the document is what it purports to be.); quoting Iran v. I.N.S., 656 F.2d 469, 472 n. 8 (9th Cir.1981) (as amended)).

SAFE HAVEN " CRIME INVOLVING MORAL TURPITUDE " UNAUTHORIZED MANUFACTURE OR POSSESSION OF U.S. IDENTIFICATION CARD
United States v. Jackson, ___ F.3d ___, 2014 WL 2747193 (9th Cir. Jun. 18, 2014) (reversing federal misdemeanor conviction for unlawfully manufacturing a U.S. identification card, in violation of 18 U.S.C. 701, since no rational finder of fact could have concluded beyond a reasonable doubt that an identification card the defendant was accused of unlawfully manufacturing or possessing was, as section 701 requires, "of the design prescribed by the head of any department or agency of the United States."). Note: This offense should not be considered a crime of moral turpitude, since it is purely regulatory offense. There is no evil intent in manufacturing a U.S. identity card. It is only the fact that the manufacture or possession is unauthorized that renders it illegal. This is not sufficient categorically to constitute a CMT.

Corpuz v. Holder, 697 F.3d 807, *814 (9th Cir. Aug. 31, 2012) (while time in pre-conviction civil confinement to determine competence to stand trial generally would not be included in the phrase term of imprisonment for purposes of former INA 212(c), such a period is considered part of the term of imprisonment where the defendant was given credit for time served on the basis of the civil confinement, but with limitations: The question is how this time should be counted. We conclude that time spent in civil psychiatric confinement that is credited against a defendant's sentence should be counted in a manner that allows us to approximate, as closely as possible, the time the defendant would have served in prison had he never been in civil psychiatric confinement. This means that we should determine a constructive good time credit for the period spent in civil confinement based on the degree to which the defendant accumulated good time credit while in prison. The period spent in pre-trial psychiatric confinement should be calculated as part of the defendant's term of imprisonment only after this constructive good time credit is taken into account.).

JUDICIAL REVIEW " BOARD OF IMMIGRATION APPEALS " DE NOVO REVIEW OF FACTUAL FINDINGS
Rodriguez v. Holder, 683 F.3d 1164, *1170 (9th Cir. Jun. 27, 2012) (BIA erred by making its own factual determination and engaging in de novo review of the IJ's factual findings; 8 C.F.R. 1003.1(d)(3)(i), (iv), allow it to review findings of fact only for clear error, and prohibit it from making its own factual determinations). The court described the correct standard of review as follows: The BIA may find an IJ's factual finding to be clearly erroneous if it is illogical or implausible, or without support in inferences that may be drawn from the facts in the record. Anderson v. Bessemer City, 470 U.S. 564, 577, 105 S.Ct. 1504, 84 L.Ed.2d 518 (1985); see also United States v. Hinkson, 585 F.3d 1247, 1262 (9th Cir.2009) (en banc).(Footnote omitted.) The Supreme Court's opinion in Anderson is extremely helpful to our understanding of the limits on the BIA when it reviews the IJ's factual findings for clear error. In fact, the Department of Justice cited Anderson in the explanatory comments that it issued to accompany the new regulations adopting the clear error standard of review, and concluded that [a] factfinding may not be overturned simply because the Board would have weighed the evidence differently or decided the facts differently had it been the factfinder. Board of Immigration Appeals: Procedural Reforms to Improve Case Management, 67 Fed.Reg. 54,878, 54,889 (Aug. 26, 2002) (citing Anderson, 470 U.S. at 573, 105 S.Ct. 1504). Anderson provides important guidance on the purpose and limits of the clear error standard: Th[e clear error] standard plainly does not entitle a reviewing court to reverse the finding of the trier of fact simply because it is convinced that it would have decided the case differently. The reviewing court oversteps the bounds of its duty ... if it undertakes to duplicate the role of the lower court.... If the district court's account of the evidence is plausible in light of the record viewed in its entirety, the court of appeals may not reverse it even though convinced that had it been sitting as the trier of fact, it would have weighed the evidence differently. Where there are two permissible views of the evidence, the factfinder's choice between them cannot be clearly erroneous. 470 U.S. at 573"74, 105 S.Ct. 1504 (emphasis added); see also Inwood Labs., Inc. v. Ives Labs., Inc., 456 U.S. 844, 857"58, 102 S.Ct. 2182, 72 L.Ed.2d 606 (1982) (An appellate court cannot substitute its interpretation of the evidence for that of the trial court simply because the reviewing court might give the facts another construction, resolve the ambiguities differently, and find a more sinister cast to actions which the District Court apparently deemed innocent. (quoting United States v. Real Estate Boards, 339 U.S. 485, 495, 70 S.Ct. 711, 94 L.Ed. 1007 (1950))). In particular, where credibility determinations are at issue, Anderson counsels that even greater deference must be afforded to the IJ's factual findings, for only the trial judge can be aware of the variations in demeanor and tone of voice that bear so heavily on the listener's understanding of and belief in what is said. Id. at 575, 105 S.Ct. 1504 (citing Wainwright v. Witt, 469 U.S. 412, 105 S.Ct. 844, 83 L.Ed.2d 841 (1985)). Similarly, the Fourth Circuit very recently noted that IJs hear witnesses and determine the credibility of evidence. The BIA reviews a paper record, devoid of the nuances of weighing evidence first hand. The IJ is thus in a better position to make factual determinations than the BIA acting in an appellate capacity. Turkson, 667 F.3d at 527. Of course, as the Anderson Court rightly pointed out, [t]his is not to suggest that the trial judge may insulate his findings from review by denominating them credibility determinations, for factors other than demeanor and inflection go into the decision whether or not to believe a witness. 470 U.S. at 575, 105 S.Ct. 1504. In certain circumstances, Anderson explains, the weight of the record may overcome a positive credibility determination: Documents or objective evidence may contradict the witness' story; or the story itself may be so internally inconsistent or implausible on its face that a reasonable factfinder would not credit it. Where such factors are present, the court of appeals may well find clear error even in a finding purportedly based on a credibility determination. Id. (citing United States v. U.S. Gypsum Co., 333 U.S. 364, 396, 68 S.Ct. 525, 92 L.Ed. 746 (1948)). However, the Anderson court concluded by explaining that when a trial judge's finding is based on his decision to credit the testimony of one of two or more witnesses, each of whom has told a coherent and facially plausible story that is not contradicted by extrinsic evidence, that finding, if not internally inconsistent, can virtually never be clear error. Id. (emphasis added). In the context of this case, it would be error for the BIA to hold that the IJ's findings of fact and credibility determinations were clearly erroneous if those findings and determinations were not illogical or implausible and had support in inferences that may be drawn from the record, and if Lopez"Rodriguez's testimony is uncontradicted by objective evidence and internally consistent.

JUDICIAL REVIEW " CIRCUIT PANEL CONSISTENCY
United States v. Ramos-Medina, 682 F.3d 852, 857-858 (9th Cir. June 21, 2012) Where there has been no change in the relevant statues, regulations or governing authority, such as an intervening decision of the Supreme Court, only an en banc panel of our court may overrule or revise the binding precedent established by a published opinion. As we observed in Miller v. Gammie, 335 F.3d 889, 900 (9th Cir.2003) (en banc): 'A goal of our circuit's decisions, including panel and en banc decisions, must be to preserve the consistency of circuit law. The goal is codified in procedures governing en banc review. See 28 U.S.C. 46; Fed. R.App. P. 35.' This panel is not free to disregard the decision of another panel of our court simply because we think the arguments have been characterized differently or more persuasively by a new litigant.").

See Alarcon-Serrano, 220 F.3d at 119-20. It was permissible and appropriate for the IJ and BIA to rely on such information in determining whether there was reason to believe petitioner was knowingly transporting marijuana when he attempted to cross the border into the United States. See id. Accordingly, we conclude that it was proper for the IJ to receive and consider petitioner's testimony, Agent Lehman's opinion, and other information not necessarily known, actually or constructively, to officers at the border on December 13, 2002.).

CRIMES OF MORAL TURPITUDE - POSSESSION OF CHILD PORNOGRAPHY
United States v. Santacruz, 563 F.3d 894 (9th Cir. Apr. 20, 2009) (per curiam) (federal conviction of possession of child pornography, in violation of 18 U.S.C. 2252A(a)(5)(B) ("knowingly possesses, or knowingly accesses with intent to view, any book, magazine, periodical, film, videotape, computer disk, or any other material that contains an image of child pornography"), constituted a conviction of a crime involving moral turpitude, and supported district court's order granting partial summary judgment in favor of the United States in an action to revoke naturalized citizenship: "The Supreme Court has characterized sexual abuse of a minor as "an act repugnant to the moral instincts of a decent people." Ashcroft v. Free Speech Coalition, 535 U.S. 234, 244, 122 S.Ct. 1389, 152 L.Ed.2d 403 (2002). Moreover, child pornography, as "permanent record of a child's abuse," causes continuing "injury to the child's reputation and well-being." Id. at 249. Because possession of child pornography offends conventional morality and visits continuing injury on children, it is "vile, base or depraved and ... violates societal moral standards." Navarro-Lopez, 503 F.3d at 1074. Therefore, possession of child pornography under 18 U.S.C. 2252A(a)(5)(B) is a crime involving moral turpitude."); accord In re Olquin-Rufino, 23 I. & N. Dec. 896, 896 (BIA 2006) (Florida conviction of possession of child pornography, under Florida Statute 827.071(5) ("unlawful for any person to knowingly possess a photograph, motion picture, exhibition, show, representation, or other presentation which ... he or she knows to include any sexual conduct by a child"), constituted conviction of crime involving moral turpitude); See Iowa Supreme Court Attorney Disciplinary Bd. v. Blazek, 739 N.W.2d 67, 69 (Iowa 2007) (possession of child pornography is morally turpitudinous); Chapman v. Gooden, 974 So.2d 972, 977 (Ala.2007) (same); cf. In re Wolff, 490 A.2d 1118, 1120 (D.C.Ct.App.1985), vacated, 494 A.2d 932, aff'd, 511 A.2d 1047 (1986) (en banc) (same) (possession of child pornography is a crime involving moral turpitude).
This decision is incorrect. Museums, law enforcement agencies, court clerks, and academic researchers may possess these items without moral culpability of any kind. The issue of criminality of their possession hinges on whether the possession is unauthorized under law. This offense is therefore malum prohibitum, and should be considered a regulatory offense, rather than a crime of moral turpitude. It is, after all, mere private possession, rather than production or distribution.
