Office has agreed to rescind its March 1, 2005 decision dismissing American Baptist

Seminary of the West’s (ABSW) appeal from the United States Citizenship and Immigration

from USCIS’ denial of its I-360 petition. 

The parties further ask this Court to vacate the briefing schedule and the hearing date in

Each of the parties shall bear their own costs and fees.
