CA1: First disses brief

Kurniawan v. Mukasey, No. 07-2421 (8/28/08) (unpublished).  This denies the petition fore review of an Indonesian Muslim that converted to Christianity.  The First writes:

He argues that the persecution he suffered in Indonesia, in conjunction with the 2005 Country Report on Human Rights Practices in Indonesia, constitutes evidence sufficient to satisfy his burden. However, nothing in the record or in his woefully inadequate brief compels a contrary finding

Does this mean that the guy would get to stay in the country if the brief were adequate?
