FILED NOT FOR PUBLICATION JUL 19 2012 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS U .S. C O U R T OF APPE ALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT JAMES ARTHUR MULGREW, No. 09-17737 Petitioner - Appellant, D.C. No. 2:09-cv-00767-MCE v. MEMORANDUM * M. McDONALD, Warden, Respondent - Appellee. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California Morrison C. England, Jr., District Judge, Presiding Submitted July 17, 2012 ** Before: SCHROEDER, THOMAS, and SILVERMAN, Circuit Judges. California state prisoner James Arthur Mulgrew appeals from the district court’s judgment dismissing his
28 U.S.C. § 2254habeas petition as untimely. We have jurisdiction under
28 U.S.C. § 2253, and we affirm. Mulgrew contends that the district court erred in dismissing his petition as * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). untimely. We need not decide whether Mulgrew was entitled to any form of tolling to render his petition timely because the district court lacked jurisdiction to consider the petition. See
28 U.S.C. § 2254(a); Bailey v. Hill,
599 F.3d 976, 982 (9th Cir. 2010) (“§ 2254(a) does not confer jurisdiction over a state prisoner’s in-custody challenge to a restitution order imposed as part of a criminal sentence”); Washington v. Lampert,
422 F.3d 864, 869 (9th Cir. 2005) (reviewing court may affirm on any ground supported by the record). AFFIRMED. 2 09-17737
