Opinion

MEMORANDUM

Jesus Rangel-Reynel, 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 removal order. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . We review de novo questions of law, Perez-Mejia v. Holder, 663 F.3d 403, 408-09 (9th Cir.2011), and we deny the petition for review.

Rangel-Reynel’s challenge to his removability under 8 U.S.C. § 1227 (a)(2)(A)(iii) for having been convicted of an aggravated felony fails because he is bound by his attorney’s concession of removability during the pleading stage. See Perez-Mejia, 663 F.3d at 409-17 .

We grant Rangel-Reynel’s motion to accept his late-filed reply brief.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
