"On July 26,2012, the Board requested supplemental briefing as to whether, in light of Pannu v. Holder, 639 F.3d 1225 (9th Cir. 2011), the respondent's conviction for failing to register as a sex offender, CAL. PENAL CODE § 290(g)(2) (2001), was a crime involving moral turpitude. ... we conclude that the respondent's conviction under section 290(g)(2) is not categorically for a crime involving moral turpitude.  The record will be remanded for further fact-finding and legal analysis as to whether the respondent's conviction under section 290(g)(2) is for a crime involving moral turpitude under either steps two or three of Matter of Silva-Trevino." - Matter of X-, Oct. 24, 2012.  [Hats off to Bob Jobe!]
