   MEMORANDUM

Petitioner Joey Domondon Andres petitions for review of the order directing his removal to the Philippines. We deny the petition.

An alien enjoying lawful permanent residence status who

(I) is convicted of a crime involving moral turpitude committed within five years ... after the date of admission, and (II) is convicted of a crime for which a sentence of one year or longer may be imposed, is deportable.

8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(A)(i).

In this case, Andres was convicted of a charge that was properly deemed a crime involving moral turpitude. See Rodriguez-Herrera v. INS, 52 F.3d 238, 240 (9th Cir.1995); see also Vigue v. Alaska, 987 P.2d 204, 210 (Alaska Ct.App.1999). He did so within five years of the date of his admission into the country. That crime was punishable by one year or more of incarceration. See Alaska Stat. § 11.56.610(b). Accordingly, Andres is deportable under 8 U.S.C § 1227(a)(2)(A)(i).

PETITION DENIED
