Ruffo

MEMORANDUM **

California state prisoner Steven W. Ruffo appeals pro se the district court’s denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas petition challenging his conviction for making terrorist threats and resisting arrest. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 2253 , we review de novo, Mendez v. Small, 298 F.3d 1154, 1157-58 (9th Cir.2002), and we affirm.

Ruffo has not rebutted the state court’s factual findings on the officer’s credibility regarding the automobile accident by clear and convincing evidence. See 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (e)(1); Himes v. Thompson, 336 F.3d 848, 852 (9th Cir.2003). Given the state court’s findings on the officer’s credibility, the evidence would not have undermined his credibility and therefore there was no Brady violation. *615 See Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. at 87 , 83 S.Ct. 1194 , 10 L.Ed.2d 215 (1963); United States v. Bagley, 473 U.S. 667, 682 , 105 S.Ct. 3375 , 87 L.Ed.2d 481 (1985) (explaining that…
