Beltre-Veloz v. Mukasey (1st Cir. 7/9/08) SELYA Howard Torruella The 1st Cir held that conclusional statements, without details, that the Petitioner tried to locate his former lawyer were insufficient to satisfy Lozada - also noting that he didn't detail his arrangements with former counsel, or send the ARDC notice to the right place. Rejects argument that it was "substantial compliance," finding that it wasn't substantial, and that argument wasn't presented to BIA. No equitable tolling, since no due diligence.
