Thanks for the clarification, that helps a lot.

I don't doubt what you're saying, but it is very odd to me that this took two hearings from an IJ to sort out. The mark boat should have been called as a witness during the first hearing, before a decision was ever made.

Of course, anything can and does happen in the room...
