Marmolejo-Campos v. Holder, 558 F.3d 903 (9th Cir. Mar. 4, 2009) (en banc) (no deference owed to BIA interpretations of criminal statutes or BIA examination of the record of conviction), citing Cuevas-Gaspar v. Gonzales, 430 F.3d 1013, 1017 (9th Cir. 2005).
NOTE: Arguably, this may be interpreted to mean that the Ninth Circuit does not owe deference the method of analysis applied in Matter of Silva-Trevino, 24 I. & N. Dec. 687 (A.G. 2008). Therefore, prior Ninth Circuit case law applying categorical, divisible statute, minimum conduct, Duenas-Alvarez analysis should still hold in the CMT context despite Silva-Trevino. The Court did not apply the Silva-Trevino analytical method in Marmalejo-Campos, but this was not an issue before the court.
