Jorge URBANO-BARRIGA, aka Jorge Barriga, AKA Jorge Urbano, Petitioner, v. Eric H. HOLDER, Jr., Attorney General, Respondent, 540 F. App'x 643

MEMORANDUM Petitioner Jorge Urbano-Barriga, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ dismissal of his appeal of an Immigration Judge’s decision finding him removable due to a conviction that qualified as an aggravated felony theft offense under 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(4S)(G). His conviction was for violation of California Penal Code § 496d(a). This court in Alvarez-Reynaga v. Holder, 596 F.3d 534, 536-37 (9th Cir.2010), held that California Penal Code § 496d(

a) categorically qualifies as an aggravated felony. Relying on our previous decision in Verdugo-Gonzalez v. Holder, 581 F.3d 1059, 1061-62 (9th Cir.2009), we observed that California’s general receipt of stolen property offense matched the generic theft offense, and concluded that California Penal Code § 496d(

a) was an aggravated felony for the same reason. Alvarez-Reynago, 596 F.3d at 536-37. Our decision in Alvarez-Reynaga is controlling. The petition is DENIED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
