Opinion

PER CURIAM: *

Freddie Demoris Bradley, Texas prisoner # 1131925, appeals the district court’s dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition for habeas relief. Bradley claims that the evidence at trial was legally insufficient to support the jury’s verdict that he was guilty of robbery. Specifically, he asserts that no evidence in the record supports a finding that he “intentionally or knowingly threaten[ed] or place[d] another in fear of imminent bodily injury or death.” See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 29.02(a)(2).

We have reviewed the record and the briefs submitted by the parties and hold that Bradley failed to meet his burden of establishing that the state court’s adjudication of his claims resulted in a decision that was contrary to federal law. See 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d); Williams v. Taylor, 529 U.S. 362, 402-13, 120 S.Ct. 1495, 146 L.Ed.2d 389 (2000); Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307, 324-25, 99 S.Ct. 2781, 61 L.Ed.2d 560 (1979); Wilmeth v. State, 808 S.W.2d 703, 705-06 (Tex.1991). Accordingly, we affirm.

AFFIRMED.

* Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
