Residency requirement not waived

In Pedroza-Padilla v. Gonzales, the Ninth Circuit found that a waiver of inadmissibility does not also waive a legalization requirement that an alien reside continuously in the U.S. since January 1, 1982.  Pedroza-Padilla had been deported in 1985, and therefore, cannot satisfy the residency requirement.
