Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Monica Consuelo Constantino Huirache, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' order denying her motion to reconsider. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We grant the petition for review and remand for further proceedings.
The agency concluded that Constantino Huirache was ineligible for cancellation of removal because her conviction under Cal.Penal Code § 273a(b) was categorically a "crime of child abuse" within the meaning of 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(E)®. We subsequently held that a conviction under section 273a(b) is not categorically a crime of child abuse. See Fregozo v. Holder, 576 F.3d 1030, 1034 (9th Cir.2009). We therefore remand for application of the modified categorical analysis in light of the definition of "child abuse" set forth in Matter of Velazquez-Herrera, 24 I. & N. Dec. 503 (BIA 2008). See id. at 1040.
In light of our disposition, we do not reach Constantino Huirache's remaining contentions.
PETITION FOR REVIEW GRANTED; REMANDED.
