Matter of LG, 21 I. & N. Dec.
89 (BIA Sept. 27, 1995) (en banc) (Louisiana conviction of
drug possession, considered a felony under state law, could
not be considered a "felony" under 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(2),
and is therefore not an "aggravated felony" under
INA § 101(a)(43)(B), 8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(43)(B)), overruled
in part by Matter of Yanez-Garcia, 23 I. & N. Dec. 390
(BIA May 13, 2002).
