Santana Garnica v. Holder

390 F. App'x 704

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Salvador Santana Garnica, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying his application for cancellation of removal. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo questions of law, Altamirano v. Gonzales, 427 F.3d 586, 591 (9th Cir.2005), and we deny the petition for review.

Santana Garnica’s contention that his conviction 'does not render him ineligible for cancellation of removal because it occurred more than ten years prior to his application is foreclosed by Flores Juarez v. Mukasey, 530 F.3d 1020, 1022 (9th Cir.2008) (per curiam) (“[Section] 1229b(b)(1)(C) ... does not place any temporal limitation on when the crime was committed”).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
