CA10 on CIMT, Divisibility: Garcia-Morales v. Barr

Garcia-Morales v. Barr

"Mr. Garcia-Morales argues that, contrary to the BIA’s conclusion, his accessory conviction under Idaho Code (“I.C.”) § 18-205 is categorically not a crime involving moral turpitude (“CIMT”). We agree with him. Exercising jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a), we grant the petition and remand the case to the BIA for further proceedings consistent with this order and judgment."
