ORDER

The opinion issued in the above-entitled case on January 12, 2007 is hereby amended as follows:

On Page 11, in the first full paragraph, lines 16 -22, please delete:

Questioning by the IJ may cross the line, however, when it “becomes so aggressive that if frazzles applicants and nitpicks inconsistencies,” thus distorting the record. Giday v. Gonzales, 434 F.3d 543, 549 (7th Cir. 2006). Here, the IJ’s questioning, although extensive at times, was not so aggressive as to distort the record.

No. 05-3132 -2-

And replace with:

We have previously expressed the view that immigration judges should work to meet this obligation with patience and decorum, but we have stated that a less than desirable demeanor, in and of itself, does not violate due process. See Diallo, 381 F.3d at 70. Accordingly, the Bocis’ due process claim cannot succeed.
