Tanner v. McDaniel
Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
TASHIMA, Circuit Judge:
Kelly Lee Tanner appeals the district court’s denial of his petition for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Tanner contends that the district court erred in rejecting his claims that he received ineffective assistance of counsel in his state criminal proceedings, that his guilty plea was not knowing and voluntary, and that the district court should have granted his request for an evidentiary hearing. The district court issued a certificate of appealability as to all three issues. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1291 and 2253, and we affirm.
