   MEMORANDUM

Pablo Diaz-Jaimes, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision ordering him removed. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo whether a state statutory crime constitutes a crime involving moral turpitude, Galeana-Mendoza v. Gonzales, 465 F.3d 1054, 1057 (9th Cir.2006), and we grant the petition for review and remand for further proceedings.

The BIA concluded that Diaz-Jaimes was ineligible to adjust his status because his conviction under Oregon Revised Statute § 163.415 was a crime involving moral turpitude. Subsequent to the BIA’s order, we held that a conviction under a similar California state statute did not categorically constitute a crime involving moral turpitude. See Quintero-Salazar v. Keisler, 506 F.3d 688, 693 (9th Cir.2007) (engaging in intercourse with a minor is not categorically a crime involving moral turpitude); see also Galeana-Mendoza, 465 F.3d at 1061 (crimes against protected classes do not necessarily involve moral turpitude if they do not result in injury).

Because the BIA did not apply the modified categorical approach, we grant the petition for review and remand for further proceedings. See Morales-Garcia v. Holder, 567 F.3d 1058, 1066-67 (9th Cir.2009).

In light of our disposition, we do not reach Diaz-Jaimes’ remaining contentions.

PETITION FOR REVIEW GRANTED; REMANDED.
