Before FLAUM, Chief Judge, and MANION and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges.Laboski, Eftin v. Ashcroft, John (Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals.)
MANION, Circuit Judge. Brian Wantz alleged that Experian Information Solutions, Incorporated, violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 1681, et seq. (“the Act”), by failing to reinvestigate adequately an entry on his credit report as required by 15 U.S.C. § 1681i(a). The district court entered summary judgment on behalf of Experian, reasoning that Wantz put forth no competent evidence that he was entitled to damages. We affirm on the same ground.
Before FLAUM, Chief Judge, and POSNER and ROVNER, Circuit Judges.Posted by Marcia Oddi at October 21, 2004 01:13 PM
FLAUM, Chief Judge. Petitioner Eftin Laboski, a citizen of Macedonia, petitions this Court for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”), denying his motion for reconsideration of the dismissal of his administrative appeal. The BIA dismissed the appeal on the ground that it was untimely. The government now seeks dismissal of Laboski’s petition for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, or in the alternative, summary affirmance of the BIA’s decision. For the reasons stated herein, we hold that we have jurisdiction to review the BIA’s order, and that the BIA did not abuse its discretion in determining that Laboski’s appeal of the Immigration Judge’s (“IJ’s”) denial of his motion to reopen his case was untimely. Accordingly, we affirm the BIA’s denial of Laboski’s motion to reconsider.
