MEMORANDUM

Oscar Gonzalez-Lopez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions 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 pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . We review de novo questions of law, Mielewczyk v. Holder, 575 F.3d 992, 994 (9th Cir.2009), and we deny the petition for review.

The agency properly concluded that Gonzalez-Lopez is statutorily ineligible for cancellation of removal because his conviction for violation of California Penal Code § 273.5 is categorically a crime of domestic violence under 8 U.S.C. § 1227 (a)(2)(E)®. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(l)(C); Banuelos-Ayon v. Holder, 611 F.3d 1080, 1083 (9th Cir.2010); see also 8 U.S.C. § 1229a(c)(3)(B) (listing permissible documents for proof of conviction).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
