MEMORANDUM **

Michele Tramontana petitions this court to review the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals ordering him removed from the United States because he is an aggravated felon. INA § 237(a)(2)(A)(iii), 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(A)(iii). We dismiss the petition.

The permanent provisions of IIRIRA1 govern this case. We lack jurisdiction “to review any final order of removal against an alien who is removable by reason of having committed a criminal offense” covered by INA § 237(a)(2)(A)(iii), 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(A)(iii). See INA § 242(a)(2)(C), 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(C). However, we retain jurisdiction to determine whether we have jurisdiction. Aragoro-Ayon v. INS, 206 F.3d 847, 849 (9th Cir. 2000). The Board held that Tramontana’s conviction of attempted sexual conduct *809with a minor, in violation of Arizona Revised Statute § 13-405, amounted to an aggravated felony. Tramontana attempted to have oral sex with a 14-year-old boy. Clearly that is attempted sexual abuse of a minor, which is an aggravated felony. See INA § 101(a)(43)(A), (U), 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(43)(A), (U); see also United States v. Baron-Medina, 187 F.3d 1144, 1146 (9th Cir. 1999). As such, we lack jurisdiction to review the petition.

Petition DISMISSED.
