We lack jurisdiction to consider Muniz-Orosco’s unexhausted contention
that his conviction under Cal. Penal Code § 273.5 is not a domestic violence
conviction. See Tijani v. Holder, 628 F.3d 1071, 1080 (9th Cir. 2010) (“We lack
jurisdiction to review legal claims not presented in an alien’s administrative
proceeding before the [agency].”).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
