8 U.S.C. § 1252. We grant the petition for review and remand for further
proceedings.
In concluding that Salazar-Fuentes’s conviction under California Vehicle
Code § 10851(a) was an aggravated felony theft offense, the BIA did not have the
benefit of our decisions in United States v. Vidal, 504 F.3d 1072 (9th Cir. 2007)
(en banc), and Penuliar v. Mukasey, 528 F.3d 603 (9th Cir. 2008). We therefore
remand to the BIA to reevaluate Salazar-Fuentes’s removability in light of these
intervening decisions.
PETITION FOR REVIEW GRANTED; REMANDED.
