Mejia v. Blanks

388 F. App'x 731

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

California state prisoner Jimmy G. Mejia appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment denying his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas petition. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 2253¹, and we affirm.

Mejia contends that the Board’s 2002 decision to deny him parole was not supported by “some evidence” and therefore violated his due process rights. The state court did not unreasonably conclude that some evidence supports the Board’s decision. See 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d); see also Hayward v. Marshall, 603 F.3d 546, 563 (9th Cir.2010) (en banc).

AFFIRMED.
