• holding conviction under statute to be a categorical aggravated felony after considering Moncrieffe v. Holder, 569 US 184, 133 S.Ct. 1678, 185 L.Ed.2d 727 (2013)
• “[A] conviction for possession of marijuana for sale under CHSC § 11359 is categorically an aggravated felony, namely ‘illicit trafficking in a controlled substance.’” (quoting 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(43)(B))
• “Because ‘possession for sale’ under CHSC § 11359 necessarily comprises only possession with intent to distribute marijuana in exchange for remuneration, convictions under that provision categorically qualify as aggravated felonies.”
