Perez-Mejia v. Holder, ___ F.3d ___, 2011 WL 1496990 (9th Cir. Apr. 21, 2011) (California conviction of possession of cocaine for sale, in violation of Health and Safety Code 11351, is not necessarily a controlled substances offense for purposes of triggering inadmissibility where the record of conviction is silent on the substance involved; admission of the respondent in the course of proceedings is insufficient to establish inadmissibility, since the admission is not part of the accepted record of conviction).
jurisdiction:
Ninth Circuit
