ordering his removal. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We grant the
petition for review and remand.
The BIA did not have the benefit of Sandoval v. Sessions, 866 F.3d 986 (9th
Cir. 2017), which held that the definition of “delivery” under Oregon Revised
Statutes (“ORS”) § 475.005 includes mere solicitation, when it held that delivery
of marijuana for consideration under ORS § 475.860(2) and delivery of marijuana
within 1,000 feet of a school under ORS § 475.862 were aggravated felonies.
Thus, we remand for further proceedings consistent with that disposition.
PETITION FOR REVIEW GRANTED; REMANDED.
