MEMORANDUM**
Thomas Meriweather, an Oregon state prisoner, appeals the district court’s denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas petition. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2253, we review a district court’s denial of a petition for writ of habeas corpus de novo, Bonin v. Calderon, 59 F.3d 815, 823-24 (9th Cir.1995), and we affirm.
Meriweather contends that the Supreme Court’s ruling in Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 120 S.Ct. 2348, 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000), is a new rule of constitutional law applicable to his sentence retroactively pursuant to Teague v. Lane, 489 U.S. 288, 310-11, 109 S.Ct. 1060, 103 L.Ed.2d 334 (1989). Meriweather’s contention is foreclosed by this court’s recent decision in United States v. Sanchez-Cervantes, 282 F.3d 664, 667 (9th Cir.2002) (concluding that Apprendi does not apply retroactively to cases on collateral review).
AFFIRMED.
