to demonstrate that an impediment external to the defense prevented him
from filing a timely petition. See Hathaway v. State, 119 Nev. 248, 252, 71
P.3d 503, 506 (2003). Appellant's arguments relating to his movement to
different facilities and law library access were not supported by specific
facts warranting relief. See Hargrove v. State, 100 Nev. 498, 686 P.2d 222
(1984). Appellant's claims of ineffective assistance of trial and appellate
counsel were themselves procedurally barred and cannot provide good
cause for the delay. See Hathaway, 119 Nev. at 252, 71 P.3d at 506. To
the extent that appellant claimed that a fundamental miscarriage of
justice—actual innocence—should overcome his procedural defects,
appellant did not demonstrate actual innocence because he failed to show
that "it is more likely than not that no reasonable juror would have
convicted him in light of. . . new evidence." Calderon v. Thompson, 523
U.S. 538, 559 (1998) (quoting Schlup v. Delo, 513 U.S. 298, 327 (1995)); see
also Pellegrini v. State, 117 Nev. 860, 887, 34 P.3d 519, 537 (2001);
Mazzan v. Warden, 112 Nev. 838, 842, 921 P.2d 920, 922 (1996).
Accordingly, we
ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
