have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2253, and we affirm.
Rosenblum contends that the district court erred by denying his motion for a
stay and abeyance. The district court did not abuse its discretion, see Jackson v.
Roe, 425 F.3d 654, 656 (9th Cir. 2005), because its finding that Rosenblum failed
to demonstrate “good cause” to excuse his failure to exhaust was consistent with
Rhines v. Weber, 544 U.S. 269, 277-78 (2005), and Wooten v. Kirkland, 540 F.3d
1019, 1023-24 (9th Cir. 2008).
Rosenblum’s motion for leave to file a pro se supplemental brief is
DENIED. Because Rosenblum is represented by counsel, only counsel may
submit filings. Accordingly, we do not consider the pro se filing received on
June 10, 2009.
AFFIRMED.
