Jesus Gutierrez-Neyoy v. Loretta E. Lynch

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Jesus Gutierrez-Neyoy v. Loretta E. Lynch, 667 F. App'x 925 (9th Cir. 2016)

Jesus Gutierrez-Neyoy v. Loretta E. Lynch

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Jesus Manuel Gutierrez-Neyoy, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision pretermit-ting his applications for cancellation of removal and voluntary departure. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo questions of law, Leal v. Holder, 771 F.3d 1140, 1144 (9th Cir. 2014), and deny the petition for review.

Gutierrez-Neyoy’s contention that his conviction for felony endangerment under Arizona Revised Statutes § 13-1201(A) is not categorically a crime involving moral turpitude is foreclosed by our decision in Leal v. Holder. Id. at 1146 (felony endangerment in Arizona is a crime involving moral turpitude). Accordingly, the BIA did not err in determining that Gutierrez-Neyoy is statutorily ineligible for cancellation of removal and voluntary departure. See 8 U.S.C. §§ 1101(f)(3), 1229b(b)(1)(B), 1229c(b)(1)(B).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
