Doward Ally v. Kathy Mendoza-Powers

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Doward Ally v. Kathy Mendoza-Powers, 410 F. App'x 71 (9th Cir. 2011)

Doward Ally v. Kathy Mendoza-Powers

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

California state prisoner Doward Ally 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 1 , and we affirm.

Ally contends that the Board of Prison Terms’s 2004 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.

. We certify for appeal, on our own motion, the issue of whether the 2004 decision of the California Board of Prison Terms to deny parole violated due process. We decline to issue a certificate of appealability as to Ally's remaining claims.
