United States Ninth Circuit
US v. Castro, 09-50164
Defendant's sentence for attempted reentry into the U.S. after removal is vacated where defendant's prior conviction under California Penal Code section 288(c)(1) categorically constituted neither "sexual abuse of a minor" nor "statutory rape" and therefore did not qualify as a crime of violence warranting a sixteen-level increase.
