DESCRIPTION
In this unpublished decision, the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) found the respondent’s waiver of appeal was not knowing and intelligent because the immigration judge did not explain that the waiver was irrevocable. The Board then remanded the record because the immigration judge failed to issue a separate oral or written decision. The decision was written by Member Elise Manuel.Looking for IRAC’s Index of Unpublished BIA Decisions? Visit www.irac.net/unpublished/indexTRANSCRIPT

IN REMOVAL PROCEEDINGS
APPEAL
ON BEHALF OF RESPONDENT: Noemi Puntier, Esquire
ORDER:
The respondent, a native and citizen of Honduras, has appealed from the Immigration Judge's decision dated January 27, 2014. We review questions oflaw, discretion, and judgment arising in appeals from decisions of Immigration Judges de novo, whereas we review findings of fact in such appeals under a "clearly erroneous" standard. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.l(d)(3).
Although the Immigration Judge's written order dated January 27, 2014, noted that the respondent had waived appeal, the transcript reveals that the Immigration Judge did not make clear to the pro se respondent that his waiver of the right to appeal was irrevocable (Tr. at 84 ). We therefore find that the respondent's waiver of appeal was not a lmowing and intelligent one. See Matter of Rodrigu,ez-Diaz, 22 I&N Dec. 1320 (BIA 2000).
Because the Immigration Judge had concluded that the respondent had waived appeal, she did not prepare a full decision including fact-finding and legal analysis with regard to the respondent's removability and any eligibility for relief from removal. We therefore will remand the record to the Immigration Judge for the preparation of a more complete decision. See Matter of S-H-, 23 I&N Dec. 462 (BIA 2002); Matter of A-P-, 22 I&N Dec. 468 (BIA 1999).
In addition, the respondent has submitted new evidence on appeal bearing upon his removability. We grant the respondent's motion to remand for the Immigration Judge to consider the new evidence.
Accordingly, the record is remanded to the Immigration Court for further proceedings.
