U .S. C OU R T OF APPE ALS

-- 1 of 2 --

We certify for appeal, on our own motion, the issue of whether the1
2005 decision of the California Board of Prison Terms to deny parole violated due
process. We decline to issue a certificate of appealability as to Edelen’s remaining
claims.
08-55246 2
California state prisoner Bobbie Edelen 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. § 2253 , and we affirm.1
Edelen contends that the Board of Prison Terms’s 2005 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, 562-63 (9th Cir. 2010).
AFFIRMED.
