The Senate bill deletes the statutory habeas corpus review in the district court. but the House bill specifically retains it and says habeas corpus petitions may be brought individually or on a multipleparty basis in Federal circuit courts of appeals. The compromise amendment deletes statutory habeas corpus review. However. we do provide for a limited judicial review in asylum cases. The court is limited in its review only to. first. whether the jurisdiction of the administrative law judge or Board was properly exercised. second. whether the asylum determination was in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. third. the constitutionality of the laws and regulations pursuant to the determination. and. fourth. whether the decision was arbitrary or capricious. That is the compromise.
