United States First Circuit

In a petition for review of a Board of Immigration Appeals decision upholding the Department of Homeland Security's removal order under 8 U.S.C. section 1227(a)(2)(A)(iii), the petition is denied where a federal or state conviction can constitute an "aggravated felony" under this law even if the petitioner served no incarcerative sentence for that crime, under section 1101(a)(43).
