Luis Camacho v. Eric H. Holder Jr.

412 F. App'x 32

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Luis Arturo Parra Camacho, 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 order pretermit-ting his application for cancellation of removal. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo questions of law, Mercado-Zazueta v. Holder, 580 F.3d 1102, 1104 (9th Cir.2009), and we grant the petition for review.

The BIA decided this case without the benefit of our decision in Mercado-Zazueta v. Holder, in which we held that for purposes of satisfying the five years of lawful permanent residence required under 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(a)(1), a parent’s status as a lawful permanent resident is imputed to the unemancipated minor children residing with that parent. 580 F.3d at 1113. Accordingly, we grant the petition for review and remand to the BIA for further proceedings. See INS v. Ventura, 537 U.S. 12, 16, 123 S.Ct. 353, 154 L.Ed.2d 272 (2002) (per curiam).

PETITION FOR REVIEW GRANTED; REMANDED.
