MEMORANDUM **
Jose A. Garcia-Lopez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judges decision denying his application for cancellation of removal. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo questions of law and claims of due process violations in immigration proceedings. Jiang v. Holder, 754 F.3d 733, 738 (9th Cir. 2014). We deny the petition for review.
The BIA properly denied cancellation of removal where Garcia-Lopez failed to meet his burden of proof to establish he was not convicted of a controlled substance offense. See 8 U.S.C. §§ 1182(a)(2)(A)(i)(II), 1229b(b)(1)(C); Pereida v. Wilkinson, ––– U.S. ––––, 141 S. Ct. 754, 763, 209 L.Ed.2d 47 (2021) (an inconclusive conviction record is insufficient to meet applicants burden of proof to show eligibility for relief); United States v. Barragan, 871 F.3d 689, 714-15 (9th Cir. 2017) (California Health & Safety Code § 11379(a) is divisible as to the controlled substance element).
Garcia-Lopezs contention that the agency violated his right to due process fails. Lata v. INS, 204 F.3d 1241, 1246 (9th Cir. 2000) (requiring error to prevail on a due process claim).
The temporary stay of removal remains in place until issuance of the mandate.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
