MEMORANDUM **

Marcos Xavier Ramirez appeals the district court’s denial of his petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 . The district court did not err when it denied Ramirez’s petition because the state court’s denial of post-conviction relief to Ramirez was not “objectively unreasonable.” Williams v. Taylor, 529 U.S. 362, 409 , 120 S.Ct. 1495 , 146 L.Ed.2d 389 (2000). Ramirez failed to show that his attorney’s performance was deficient even though his attorney did not object when the prosecutor listed a witness’s incentives for telling the truth on the stand. See Strickland, v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668, 687 , 104 S.Ct. 2052 , 80 L.Ed.2d 674 (1984).

AFFIRMED.
