1Opinion of the Court
FLAUM, Circuit Judge.
Fredy Arnoldo Sanchez seeks review of a Board of Immigration Appeals decision dismissing his appeal of the immigration judge’s order of removal. The Board determined that Sanchez was ineligible for cancellation of removal because he failed to prove that he had not been convicted of a crime involving moral turpitude. Because the Board did not properly conduct the three-step inquiry prescribed in Matter of Silva-Trevino, 24 I. & N. Dec. 687 (A.G.2008), we grant Sanchez’s petition and remand for further proceedings.
