Jose Antonio BARRIOS, Petitioner-Appellant, v. G.J. GIURBINO, Respondent-Appellee, 369 F. App'x 852

MEMORANDUM California state prisoner Jose Antonio Barrios appeals from the district court’s judgment dismissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas petition. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2253, and we affirm. Barrios contends that he received ineffective assistance of counsel when his attorney failed to communicate a plea offer to him which would have avoided a 25-years-to-life sentence pursuant to California’s “Three Strikes” law.

Because the record demonstrates that the prosecution never offered Barrios a plea offer, the California Supreme Court’s rejection of this claim was neither contrary to, nor an unreasonable application of, clearly established federal law. See 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d)(1); see also Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668, 687, 104 S.Ct. 2052, 80 L.Ed.2d 674 (1984). AFFIRMED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
