§ 1252. We review de novo questions of law, Altamirano v. Gonzales, 427 F.3d
586, 591 (9th Cir. 2005), and we deny the petition for review.
Bajala’s contention that his conviction under California Health & Safety
Code § 11358 is not an aggravated felony is foreclosed by United States v.
Reveles-Espinoza, 522 F.3d 1044, 1047 (9th Cir. 2008) (per curiam). Accordingly,
the agency properly concluded that Bajala was not eligible for cancellation of
removal. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(a)(3).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
