1Opinion of the Court

WILLIAM A. FLETCHER, Circuit Judge:

In 1990, a jury convicted Arturo Nica-nor-Romero of a violation of California Penal Code § 647.6(a). At the time of his conviction, § 647.6(a) provided, “Every person who annoys or molests any child under the age of 18 shall be punished by a fine ..., by imprisonment in a county jail not exceeding one year, or by both the fine and imprisonment.” It has been changed in immaterial respects since Nicanor-Romero’s conviction. A violation of § 647.6(a) is a misdemeanor.

The government now seeks to remove Nicanor-Romero to Mexico, based on his § 647.6(a)…
