MEMORANDUM *

1. The district court erred by failing to “actually exercise[ ] its discretion” when it refused to consider petitioner’s claim, raised in his objections to the magistrate’s Report and Recommendation, that the prison library didn’t have a copy of AEDPA. Brown v. Roe, 279 F.3d 742, 745 (9th Cir.2002) (internal quotation marks omitted). As in Brown , we remand to the district court to develop the record and determine whether petitioner’s allegation, which could provide grounds for statutory or equitable tolling, see Whalem/Hunt v. Early, 233 F.3d 1146, 1148 (9th Cir.2000) (en banc), justifies tolling in this case.

2. We reject petitioner’s “actual innocence” argument, based on allegedly incon *480 sistent verdicts, because he has failed to establish that he was, in fact, actually innocent. See Schlup v. Delo, 513 U.S. 298, 327 , 115 S.Ct. 851 , 130 L.Ed.2d 808 (1995); Majoy v. Roe, 296 F.3d 770, 775-76 (9th Cir.2002).

REVERSED and REMANDED.
