Good law
Every flagged citation to this case has been read, and none of them overrules, limits, or questions it. Orozco v. Mukasey is good law as a vacatur-and-dismissal order: all 95 flagged citations have been read, and none adversely treated that order. The opinion is the Ninth Circuit's order vacating the earlier published Orozco panel decision at 521 F.3d 1068 and dismissing the case.
More on how this was screened

Nearly all reviewed opinions instead cite the different en banc decision Estrada-Espinoza v. Mukasey, which shares the reported location 546 F.3d 1147; the remaining opinions contain no reference to either decision or that reporter citation. The treatments of Estrada-Espinoza therefore do not treat this Orozco order. Duplicate copies of citing opinions were checked separately.

Every treatment on this page is written from the citing opinion itself, with a verbatim quote, never copied from a commercial citator. A citation flagged by our screen but not shown here was read and found not to weaken this case.

215 later cases cite Orozco v. Mukasey; 95 of those citations sat close to treatment language and were flagged for reading, and all of them have been read. Citations that did not sit near treatment language were not flagged and were not read one by one, so a court that weakened this case without using any of that language would not appear here.

Relying on Orozco v. Mukasey?

This page shows what later courts did to it. Ask about your specific facts and see whether it still carries your argument, with citations you can check.

No reviewed court has overruled or limited this case.

Every one of the 95 flagged citations was read, and each turned out to be something other than adverse treatment: a routine application, a party's argument the court rejected, or the case itself discussing older law. That reading is the finding this page exists to report.
