we deny the petitions for review.
The record of conviction establishes that Brown was convicted of
“Attempted Possession of Marijuana for Sale,” a felony, in violation of Arizona
Revised Statutes §§ 13-3401, 3405, 3418, 1001, 301, 302, 303, 304, 701, 702,
702.01, and 801. See United States v. Snellenberger, 548 F.3d 699, 702 (9th Cir.
2008) (en banc) (per curiam). The agency properly concluded that “Attempted
Possession of Marijuana for Sale” contains a trafficking element and is therefore an
aggravated felony under 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(43)(B). See Rendon, 520 F.3d at 975-
76. Accordingly, the agency did not err in finding Brown removable.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
