   MEMORANDUM

George Carlton Forde, a native and citizen of Trinidad, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order summarily affirming an immigration judge’s removal order. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252, and deny the petition for review.

Forde contends that his 2002 conviction for violating California Penal Code § 273.5(a) is invalid. We reject this contention because we cannot collaterally revisit the circumstances of a conviction. See Ortega de Robles v. INS, 58 F.3d 1355, 1358 (9th Cir.1995) (“Criminal convictions cannot be collaterally attacked in deportation proceedings.”).

Forde’s remaining contentions lack merit.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
