Opinion


GILBERT CHAIDEZ, Petitioner, v. RANDY GROUNDS, Warden, Respondent. No. ED CV 10-00224-SVW (SS). United States District Court, C.D. California. April 21, 2010.

          ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS OF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

          STEPHEN V. WILSON, District Judge

         Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636, the Court has reviewed the Petition, all of the records herein, the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge, and all objections thereto. After having made a de novo determination of the portions of the Report and Recommendation to which Objections were directed, the Court concurs with and adopts the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge.

         The Court notes that on April 1, 2010, the California Court of Appeal affirmed Petitioner's conviction on direct appeal in an unpublished decision. People v. Chaidez, No. E047417, 2010 WL 1254585 (Cal.Ct.App., Apr. 1, 2010). This development does not change the present outcome, however, because Petitioner has not exhausted his state court remedies as required by 28 U.S.C. § 2254(b)(1)(A). Because Petitioner has not presented all of his federal claims to the California Supreme Court, his petition is unexhausted. See Libberton v. Ryan , 583 F.3d 1147, 1164 (9th Cir. 2009).

         IT IS ORDERED that the Petition is denied and Judgment shall be entered dismissing this action with prejudice. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk serve copies of this Order and the Judgment herein on Petitioner.

         IT IS SO ORDERED.
