MEMORANDUM

A California state court jury convicted John H. Alcala of three counts of assault with a semi-automatic firearm and one count of possession of a firearm by a felon. Alcala appeals the district court’s denial of his petition for a writ of habeas corpus.

We agree with the district court’s conclusion that the California Court of Appeal did not apply harmless-error review in an objectively unreasonable manner when it held that, even if Alcala’s Confrontation Clause rights were violated, the error was harmless. See Mitchell v. Esparza, 540 U.S. 12, 18 , 124 S.Ct. 7 , 157 L.Ed.2d 263 (2008) (per curiam); Slovik v. Yates, 556 F.3d 747, 755 (9th Cir.2009). The admitted statements only weakly implicated Al-cala and were cumulative of other evidence properly admitted, including the 911 phone call made by Laura Chavez, the testimony of Barbara Aguilar, and the shell casing found on the ground by Officer Langton.

AFFIRMED.
