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)(i). See 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(1)(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.
