immigration judge’s removal order. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C.
§ 1252, and we dismiss the petition for review.
Chatelain failed to exhaust his contentions that his conviction for delivery of
marijuana for consideration does not qualify as a conviction as defined in 8 U.S.C.
§ 1101(a)(48) and that no contest pleas are inadmissable in removal proceedings to
prove the existence of an underlying conviction. See Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d
674, 677 (9th Cir. 2004).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
