Martin Ramirez Lopez v. Eric H. Holder Jr.
Martin Ramirez Lopez v. Eric H. Holder Jr.
Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
Martin Ramirez Lopez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration *303 judge’s order denying his application for cancellation of removal. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review questions of law de novo, Castillo-Cruz v. Holder, 581 F.3d 1154, 1158-59 (9th Cir. 2009), and we deny the petition for review.
Ramirez Lopez’s contention that his conviction for violating CaLPenal Code § 273.5(a) is not a crime of domestic violence under 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(E)(i) because the statute of conviction encompasses minor injuries is foreclosed by Banuelos-Ayon v. Holder, 611 F.3d 1080, 1086 (9th Cir. 2010). Ramirez Lopez is therefore statutorily ineligible for cancellation of removal. 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
