FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT

ERIC KENNETH DUNGAN, No. 11-17992 Petitioner - Appellant, D.C. No. 2:10-cv-01191-DAD v. MEMORANDUM * RON BARNES, Warden, Respondent - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California Dale A. Drozd, Magistrate Judge, Presiding Submitted October 25, 2012 **

Before: HUG, FARRIS, and LEAVY, Circuit Judges.

California state prisoner Eric Kenneth Dungan 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.

* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).

Dungan contends that insufficient evidence was presented at trial to support his conviction for second degree murder. We agree with the district court that the state court’s determination that sufficient evidence supported Dungan’s conviction was not contrary to, or an unreasonable application of, Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307, 318-19 (1979), or “based on an unreasonable determination of the facts” in light of the state court record. 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d)(1) & (2); see Harrington v. Richter, 131 S. Ct. 770, 785 (2011); Juan H. v. Allen, 408 F.3d 1262, 1275 n.13 (9th Cir. 2005).1 AFFIRMED.

Dungan’s May 4, 2102, unopposed motion to supplement the record is granted.
