Petition to review decision ordering removal of petitioner for conviction of second-degree assault is denied where: 1) aliens convicted of "a crime involving moral turpitude" are subject to removal; 2) petitioner's conviction for "recklessly caus[ing] serious physical injury to another person" is a conviction of a crime involving moral turpitude; and 3) the Board of Immigration Appeals conclusion was persuasive.
