FILED AUG 02 2016 NOT FOR PUBLICATION UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT JESUS MANUEL GUTIERREZ-NEYOY, AKA Jesus Manuel Guitierrez-Neyoy, No. 13-72979 Agency No. A205-578-246 Petitioner, MEMORANDUM* v. LORETTA E. LYNCH, Attorney General, Respondent. On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Submitted July 26, 2016** Before: SCHROEDER, CANBY, and CALLAHAN, Circuit Judges. 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 pretermitting his applications for * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). ** 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. 2 13-72979
