procedural default. Further, his claim that he is actually innocent lacks merit because he failed to present new evidence establishing that he is actually innocent of his crimes. See House v. Bell, 547 U.S. 518, 536-37 (2006). Therefore, we conclude that the district court did not err by denying appellant's petition as procedurally barred. Accordingly, we ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
