MEMORANDUM **

Ronald K. Rowen appeals pro se the district court’s dismissal of his habeas petition. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 2253 . We review the district court’s dismissal de novo, Medina v. Hornung, 386 F.3d 872, 876-77 (9th Cir.2004). We may reverse the district court’s dismissal only if the state court adjudication “resulted in a decision that was contrary to, or involved an unreasonable application of, clearly established Federal law, as determined by the Supreme Court of the United States.” 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (d)(1).

Rowen argues that his Fifth Amendment rights were violated by the admission at his state trial of statements during a police interview, because he had not received the warning called for by Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 , 86 S.Ct. 1602 , 16 L.Ed.2d 694 (1966). The state court of appeal concluded that under Stansbury v. *602 California, 511 U.S. 318 , 114 S.Ct. 1526 , 128 L.Ed.2d 293 (1994) (per curiam), Row-en was not “in custody” during the interrogation and Miranda warnings were not required. Rowen was at home, and although he was briefly handcuffed during an initial weapons search, he was interviewed after the handcuffs were removed. The deputy specifically told Rowen he was not under arrest and would not be arrested that day, and did not tell Rowen he could not leave or that he was required to answer. Under the circumstances, a reasonable person would not have believed he was not free to leave.

This was not an unreasonable application of clearly established federal law. See Yarborough v. Alvarado, 541 U.S. 652 , 124 S.Ct. 2140, 2150 , 158 L.Ed.2d 938 (2004) (habeas relief not warranted when state court made reasonable determination that interrogation was not custodial). We therefore AFFIRM the district court.
