Supreme Court of the United States

Santos-Zacaria v. Garland

May 11, 2023598 U.S. 411

Summary

The Court held that 8 U.S.C. §1252(d)(1)'s exhaustion requirement is not jurisdictional and that it does not compel a noncitizen to seek discretionary Board of Immigration Appeals reconsideration before judicial review; consequently the Fifth Circuit's dismissal was vacated and the case remanded.
