MEMORANDUM **

California state prisoner James E. Dai-ley appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment denying his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas petition. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2253, and we affirm.

Dailey contends the trial court violated his right to present a defense and to closing arguments by precluding him from introducing third-party culpability evidence. The state court’s rejection of these claims was neither contrary to, nor an unreasonable application of, clearly established federal law. Dailey fails to show the proffered evidence was admissible under People v. Hall, 41 Cal.3d 826, 226 Cal.Rptr. 112, 718 P.2d 99 (1986). Therefore, its exclusion did not violate his constitutional right to present a defense under Crane v. Kentucky, 476 U.S. 683, 690, 106 S.Ct. 2142, 90 L.Ed.2d 636 (1986), nor his right to closing arguments under Herring v. New York, 422 U.S. 853, 857-63, 95 S.Ct. 2550, 45 L.Ed.2d 593 (1975).

Dailey also raises a number of uncerti-fied claims. Dailey has not “made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right” regarding these claims. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2); Doe v. Woodford, 508 F.3d 563, 567 (9th Cir. 2007). His motion to expand the certificate of appealability to include these claims is therefore denied. See 9th Cir. R. 22 — 1(e); see also Hiivala v. Wood, 195 F.3d 1098, 1104-05 (9th Cir. 1999) (per curiam).

AFFIRMED.
