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.
