Phallon Leon HARRIS, Petitioner-Appellant, v. Anthony HEDGPETH, Respondent-Appellee, 389 F. App'x 645

MEMORANDUM California state prisoner Phallon Leon Harris appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas petition as untimely. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 2253, and we affirm. Harris contends that he is entitled to statutory or equitable tolling because a series of lockdowns impeded his access to the prison law library. This contention fails because Harris has not demonstrated that an impediment or extraordinary circumstance prevented him from timely filing his habeas petition, or that he diligently pursued his rights. See Ramirez v.

Yates, 571 F.3d 993, 998 (9th Cir.2009); see also Bryant v. Schriro, 499 F.3d 1056, 1060 (9th Cir.2007). Harris’ contention that he is entitled to an evidentiary hearing on the issue of tolling also fails. See Tapia v. Roe, 189 F.3d 1052, 1058 (9th Cir.1999). We construe Harris’ briefing of uncerti-fied issues as a motion to expand the certificate of appealability. So construed, the motion is denied. See 9th Cir. R. 22-l(e); see also Hiivala v. Wood, 195 F.3d 1098, 1104-05 (9th Cir.1999) (per curiam). AFFIRMED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir.

R. 36-3.
