PER CURIAM:
Marlon A. Ferrufino, a native and citizen of El Salvador,
petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration
Appeals (“Board”) dismissing his appeal from the immigration
judge’s order finding he was not eligible for special rule
cancellation of removal under the Nicaraguan Adjustment and
Central American Relief Act of 1997. The Board found that
Ferrufino’s conviction for attempted distribution of cocaine,
adjudicated under the District of Columbia’s Youth
Rehabilitation Act, was an aggravated felony that made him
ineligible for such relief. Because the Board’s decision raises
a question of law, our review is de novo. Karimi v. Holder,
715
F.3d 561, 566 (4th Cir. 2013). After reviewing the record,
Ferrufino’s contentions, and the Board’s order, we conclude
there was no error of law. See Phan v. Holder,
667 F.3d 448,
450 (4th Cir. 2012). Accordingly, we deny the petition for
review on the reasoning of the Board. See In re Ferrufino,
(B.I.A. Sept. 30, 2014). We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the
materials before the court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
