(9th Cir 2002) (en bn), up o ot gou byUSSG 2L 2 cmt n 4
On November 201 respondent plead guilty to Misuse of Social Securty Numbers in
violation of 42 SC 408(a)(8) (Exh 4 at 6-7) The deral statute states:
Whoever discoses, uses or compels the disclosure of the social security number ofany person in vioation of the laws of the United States; sha be uilty of a feony andupon conviction thereof shall be ned under title 8 or imprisoned r not more hn veyears, orboth
42 USC 408(a)(8) o be convicted under this staute respondent must have () discosed,
used or compeled the disclosure of the soial security nmber of another person and (2) done
so in violation of a federa law DHS ad respondent agree (Exh 3 at 3 & Exh 2 at 34) that
because this statute is divisible and crminaizes conduct not necessaiy invoving aud or
deceit respondent's conviction does not categorically qualify s an aggravated lony S

the element of intent to deaud or deceive does not categoically qualify s n aggravated lony

he paties disagree as to whether under the modied categorical approach, DHS met its
burden to establish that respondent ws convicted of a crime involving aud or deceit in which
the loss to the victim exceeds $10,000 A 0 l(a)(43){M) DHS submied the Judgment in
respondents criminal cse, which states respondent pleaded guilty to count(s) 4 of the
