MEMORANDUM**
California state prisoner Ray A. Johnson appeals pro se the district court’s denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition for writ of habeas corpus, challenging his sentence for first degree residential burglary and petty theft with a prior, in violation of CaLPenal Code §§ 459 and 688/488. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2253. We affirm.
Johnson contends that his 25 years to life plus ten years sentence under California’s three strikes law, CaLPenal Code Ann. § 667 (West 1999), constitutes cruel and unusual punishment. This contention was recently foreclosed by the Supreme Court’s decisions in Lockyer v. Andrade, — U.S. -, 123 S.Ct. 1166, 1175, 155 L.Ed.2d 144 (2003) (holding that a state court’s affirmance of two consecutive 25-years-to-life sentences for petty theft was not contrary to, or an unreasonable application of, clearly established Federal law), and Ewing v. California, — U.S. -, 123 S.Ct. 1179, 1190, 155 L.Ed.2d 108 (2003) (holding that petitioner’s 25 years to life sentence under the California three strikes law did not violate the Eighth Amendment’s prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment).
Therefore, it was not an unreasonable application of Federal law for the California courts to affirm Johnson’s sentence, and the district court properly denied his petition. See § 2254(d); Woodford v. Visciotti, 537 U.S. 19, 123 S.Ct. 357, 361, 154 L.Ed.2d 279 (2002) (per curiam) (deciding that the federal habeas scheme “authorizes federal-court intervention only when a state-court decision is objectively unreasonable”), reh’g denied, — U.S. --, 123 S.Ct. 957, 154 L.Ed.2d 855 (2003).
AFFIRMED.
