   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  18-2826
   Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals   
   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Benton, 
   Circuit Judge] 
   Petition for Review - Immigration. The Minnesota statute under which 
   petitioner was convicted for drug possession is divisible and, applying 
   the modified categorical approach, the judicial records established that 
   she was convicted of possessing methamphetamine; as methamphetamine is a 
   federally controlled substance, her conviction under Minn. Stat. section 
   152.05 constitutes grounds for removal; petitioner is not eligible for 
   cancellation of removal; the court lacked jurisdiction to review the 
   question of fact as to how the BIA and the IJ weighed evidence; the 
   criminal alien bar precludes review of the BIA's decision on petitioner's 
   application for asylum and withholding of removal; the IJ did not abuse 
   her discretion by denying petitioner's application to terminate the 
   removal proceedings; the BIA did not err in agreeing with the IJ that the 
   decision to terminate proceedings in this instance was left to the 
   Department of Homeland Security's discretion, and the BIA did not abuse 
   its discretion in declining to terminate the proceedings.
