1Opinion of the Court
WALLACE, Chief Judge:
Coley, an Arizona State prisoner, appeals from the denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habe-as petition challenging his conviction for conspiracy to commit first degree murder, conspiracy to hinder prosecution, and hindering prosecution. Coley argues that the district court’s ruling that he is procedurally barred from bringing his claims is erroneous. We have jurisdiction over this timely appeal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2253. We affirm in part, reverse in part, and remand.
