Steven Joseph KALLO, Petitioner—Appellant, v. Silvia H. GARCIA, Warden, Respondent—Appellee.
    No. 06-15063.
    United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.
    Argued and Submitted Oct. 17, 2006.
    Filed July 9, 2007.
    Victor S. Haltom, Esq., Sacramento, CA, for Petitioner-Appellant.
    Julia L. Bancroft, Justain P. Riley, DAG, AGCA—Office of the California Attorney General, Sacramento, CA, for Respondent-Appellee.
    Before: BRUNETTI, O’SCANNLAIN, and TROTT, Circuit Judges.
   MEMORANDUM

The state court’s conclusion that any constitutional infirmities in the original version of CALJIC 2.50.01 were cured by the supplementary proviso was not “contrary to” or “an unreasonable application of[] clearly established Federal law, as determined by the Supreme Court of the United States.” 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d)(1). The district court properly denied habeas relief. See id.

Kallo’s constitutional challenge to the Anti-terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act is without merit. See Crater v. Galaza, 491 F.3d 1119, 2007 WL 1965122 (9th Cir.2007) (explaining the constitutional validity of 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d)(1)); Duhaime v. Ducharme, 200 F.3d 597, 601 (9th Cir.2000) (concluding that “ § 2254(d)(1) does not suffer from any Article III constitutional infirmities”).

AFFIRMED.
