OPINION*

2

California state prisoner Lee Martin appeals pro se the district court's denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2253. We review de novo the district court's denial of Martin's petition, see James v. Borg, 24 F.3d 20, 24 (9th Cir.1994), and we affirm.

**

The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R.App. P. 34(a); 9th Cir. R. 34-4. Accordingly, Martin's requests for oral argument and appointment of counsel are denied
