Jamal v. Mukasey (1st Cir. 6/27/08)

CAMPBELL, Stahl, Boudin

The 1st Cir found a due process claim that the IJ failed to make an individualized analysis re the one-year asylum filing deadline "frivolous." On withholding claim, refused to disturb IJ's finding that beating by Pakistani police was an isolated incident that did not rise to level of past persecution; and found that instability in Pakistan was not enough (absent an individualized threat or a pattern of persecution) to meet future fear threshhold.
