Carlos PÁGAN-SAN MIGUEL, Petitioner, v. UNITED STATES, Respondent, 736 F.3d 44

PER CURIAM. Petitioner Carlos Pagan-San-Miguel seeks leave to file a second or successive petition under 28 U.S.C. § 2255. He relies upon the Supreme Court’s recent decisions in Missouri v. Frye, — U.S. -, 132 S.Ct. 1399, 182 L.Ed.2d 379 (2012), and Lafler v. Cooper, — U.S.-, 132 S.Ct. 1376, 182 L.Ed.2d 398 (2012), and upon Martinez v. Ryan, — U.S.-, 132 S.Ct. 1309, 182 L.Ed.2d 272 (2012), and Trevino v. Thaler, — U.S.-, 133 S.Ct. 1911, 185 L.Ed.2d 1044 (2013).

However, none of those cases establishes a “new rule of constitutional law, made retroactive to cases on collateral review,” as 28 U.S.C. § 2255(h)(2) requires. We agree with every other circuit to have considered the issue that neither Frye nor Cooper established a “new rule of constitutional law.” See In re Liddell, 722 F.3d 737, 738 (6th Cir.2013) (per curiam) (citing cases).

As the Seventh Circuit pointed out, “the Court’s language repeatedly and clearly spoke of applying an established rule to the present facts” and both cases were “decided in the post-conviction context, where state courts ordinarily are not held to proper application of new rules.” Hare v. United States, 688 F.3d 878, 879 (7th Cir.2012). “The Supreme Court in both cases merely applied the Sixth l^iendment right to effective assistance of counsel according to the test articulated in Strickland v.

Washington, 466 U.S. 668, 686, 104 S.Ct. 2052, 80 L.Ed.2d 674 (1984), and established in the plea-bargaining . context in Hill v. Lock-hart, 474 U.S. 52, 106 S.Ct. 366, 88 L.Ed.2d 203 (1985).” Buenrostro v. United States, 697 F.3d 1137, 1140 (9th Cir.2012). We also join the circuits that have considered the question in holding that Martinez did not announce a new rule of constitutional law. See Jones v. Ryan, 733 F.3d 825, 843 (9th Cir.) (citing cases), cert. denied — U.S. -, 134 S.Ct. 503, 187 L.Ed.2d 340, 2013 WL 5733725 (2013).

As the Ninth Circuit explained, ‘Martinez ‘qualifie[d] Coleman by recognizing a narrow exception’ to that case’s rule,” and the Court itself “characterized its decision in Martinez as an ‘equitable ruling,’ and not a ‘constitutional’ one.” Id.; see also Adams v. Thaler, 679 F.3d 312, 323 n. 6 (5th Cir.2012) (same). Therefore, petitioner’s reliance upon Martinez and Trevino v.

Thaler, supra, (applying Martinez exception where a state’s procedural framework “makes it highly unlikely in a typical case that a defendant will have a meaningful opportunity to raise a claim of ineffective assistance of trial counsel on direct appeal”) is unavailing.

Petitioner’s application for leave to file a second or successive motion pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255 is denied. . ''Th[is] ... denial of an authorization ... to file a second or successive application shall not be appealable and shall not be the subject of a petition for rehearing or for a writ of certiorari." 28 U.S.C. § 2244(b)(3)(E); see Lykus v. Corsini, 565 F.3d 1 (1st Cir.2009).
