Fernando ACEVEDO-FERNANDEZ, Petitioner,
v.
IMMIGRATION AND NATURALIZATION SERVICE, Respondent.
No. 90-70684.
United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.
Argued and Submitted Nov. 6, 1991.*
Decided Dec. 10, 1991.
Before SNEED, BEEZER and TROTT, Circuit Judges.
MEMORANDUM
An alien may be deported from the United States if, "at any time [the alien] has been convicted of a violation of, or a conspiracy or attempt to violate, any law or regulation of a State, the United States, or a foreign country relating to a controlled substance (as defined in section 102 of the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 802))." 8 U.S.C. § 1251(a)(11).
Aliens deportable under 8 U.S.C. § 1251(a)(11), except those convicted of a single offense of simple possession of 30 grams or less of marijuana, are ineligible for suspension of deportation under 8 U.S.C. § 1254(a)(2) or for voluntary departure under 8 U.S.C. § 1254(e). See 8 U.S.C. § 1254(a)(2); 8 U.S.C. § 1254(e).
The Board of Immigration Appeals did not err in holding that the petitioner was deportable and was ineligible for suspension of deportation or voluntary departure as a result of his conviction for using and being under the influence of phencyclidine ("PCP"), a controlled substance.
AFFIRMED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by Ninth Cir.R. 36-3
