OPINION
_________________________
ALICE M. BATCHELDER, Circuit Judge. Jane Doe alleges that the University of
Kentucky (UK) violated Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (Title IX), 86 Stat. 373,
codified at 20 U.S.C. § 1681, et seq., by responding with deliberate indifference to her
accusations of student-on-student harassment. Because Jane Doe failed to show that UK’s
response subjected her to further actionable harassment that caused Title IX injuries, we
AFFIRM the district court’s grant of summary judgment. |

MANUEL GUZMAN-VAZQUEZ,
Petitioner,
v.
WILLIAM P. BARR, Attorney General,
Respondent. |
No. 19-3417 |
On Petition for Review from the Board of Immigration Appeals;
No. A 206 154 087.
Decided and Filed: May 18, 2020
Before: MERRITT, MOORE, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges.
_________________________
OPINION
_________________________
KAREN NELSON MOORE, Circuit Judge. Manuel Guzman, a native and citizen of
Mexico, petitions for review of the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”)
affirming an immigration judge’s denial of his application for withholding of removal. Because
the IJ and BIA erred in failing to give Guzman an opportunity to explain why he could not
reasonably obtain certain corroborative evidence, because substantial evidence does not support
the Immigration Judge (“IJ”) and BIA’s determinations regarding the unavailability of evidence
to corroborate Guzman’s claim about abuse by his stepfather, and because the BIA incorrectly
required Guzman to demonstrate that his membership in a particular social group was “at least
one central reason” for his persecution, we GRANT the petition for review, VACATE the BIA’s
order, and REMAND for proceedings consistent with this opinion. |
