Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Except for taking administrative notice of commonly known facts such as current events or the contents of official documents, the [BIA] will not engage .in factfinding in the course of deciding appeals.

If further factfinding is needed in a particular case, the [BIA] may remand the proceeding to the immigration judge or, as appropriate, [US-CIS]. ■”
