Martinez-Sanchez

MEMORANDUM **

Alfredo Martinez-Sanchez petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals finding him removable as an aggravated felon under INA § 237(a)(2)(A)(iii), 8 U.S.C. § 1227 (a)(2)(A)(iii). Petitioner pled guilty on May 20, 1984, to driving under the influence of alcohol and proximately causing bodily injury to another person, in violation of California Vehicle Code § 23153(a). In United States v. Trinidad-Aquino, 259 F.3d 1140 (9th Cir.2001), this court held that a violation of § 23153 is not a “crime of violence” as defined in 18 U.S.C. § 16 . Therefore, we find that petitioner’s conviction does not qualify as an aggravated felony under 8 U.S.C. § 1101 (a)(43)(F).

PETITION GRANTED.
