    I & NS No. [ AXX-XXX-XXX ].
    United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.
    
      Submitted April 5, 2002.
    
    Decided April 18, 2002.
    Before GOODWIN, PREGERSON, and TROTT, Circuit Judges.
    
      
       This panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R.App. P. 34(a)(2).
    
   MEMORANDUM

Neither Rodas-Ochoa nor any member of her family remains affiliated with MAS, and no entity currently has any interest in harming her. The BIA was correct to conclude that Rodas-Ochoa maintained no well-founded fear of future persecution, and accordingly, the petition is denied.

Judge Pregerson would grant the petition. Threats received by Rodas-Ochoa amounted to past persecution. The INS’s evidence does not rebut the presumption of a well-founded fear of future persecution.

DENIED.
