Respondent.

On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals.

Submitted: August 25, 2010 Decided: September 3, 2010

Before DUNCAN, AGEE, and DAVIS, Circuit Judges.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Hugo Cesar Castro, Rockville, Maryland, for Petitioner. Tony West, Assistant Attorney General, William C. Peachey, Assistant Director, Rebecca Hoffberg, Office of Immigration Litigation, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Washington, D.C., for Respondent.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Angel De Leon, a native and citizen of Guatemala,

petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration

Appeals (“Board”) dismissing his appeal from the immigration

judge’s denial of his application for adjustment of status. We

have reviewed the record and the Board’s order and affirm the

denial of relief for the reasons stated by the Board. In re: De

Leon (B.I.A. Feb. 25, 2010); see Ramirez v. Holder, 609 F.3d

331, 335-37 (4th Cir. 2010) (holding that an alien who is

inadmissible under 8 U.S.C. § 1182(a)(9)(C)(i)(I) (2006) is

ineligible for adjustment of status pursuant to 8 U.S.C.

§ 1255(i) (2006)). Accordingly, we deny the petition for

review. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and

legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials

before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

PETITION DENIED
