Lopez-Ruiz v. Holder

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Ignacio Lopez-Ruiz, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration *844 judge’s denial of his application for cancellation of removal. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo questions of law. Cazarez-Gutier-rez v. Ashcroft, 382 F.3d 905, 909 (9th Cir. 2004). We deny the petition for review.

Lopez-Ruiz’s contention that his conviction under Cal. Health & Safety Code § 11358 is not an aggravated felony is foreclosed by United States v. Reveles-Espinoza, 522 F.3d 1044, 1047-48 (9th Cir. 2008). The agency properly concluded that Lopez-Ruiz was not eligible for cancellation of removal. 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(a)(3).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
