Dieuvu Forvilus, A071 552 965 (BIA Jan. 28, 2014)

In this unpublished decision, the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) sustained the respondent’s appeal and terminated proceedings upon finding third degree theft under Fla. Stat. 812.014 not to be a categorical crime involving moral turpitude because the statute encompasses offenses in which only a temporary taking or appropriation of property is intended. The Board also found the statute not to be divisible under Descamps v. United States, 133 S. Ct. 2276 (2013), because permanent and temporary takings are alternative means of committing grand theft, not alternative elements about which Florida jurors must agree in order to convict. The decision was written by Member Roger Pauley and joined by Member John Guendelsberger and Member Anne Greer.
