Jose Luis MURILLO, Petitioner-Appellant, v. Kelly HARRINGTON, Warden, Respondent-Appellee.
    No. 11-15811.
    United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.
    Argued and Submitted Nov. 4, 2013.
    Filed Nov. 13, 2013.
    Jose Luis Murillo, Soledad, CA, pro se.
    Arthur Paul Beever, Deputy Attorney General, California Department of Justice, San Francisco, CA, for Respondent-Appel-lee.
    Before: KLEINFELD, THOMAS, and RAWLINSON, Circuit Judges.
   MEMORANDUM

Jose Luis Murillo appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas petition as untimely. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 2253, and we affirm.

Murillo waited 363 days after his conviction became final before he filed his first habeas petition. He argues that this entire period should be tolled, because he did not possess his legal file. The record does not show that he asked for his legal file during this period. Murillo, therefore, did not establish that he exercised reasonable diligence in pursuing his rights. Cf. Holland v. Florida, 560 U.S. 631, 130 S.Ct. 2549, 2565, 177 L.Ed.2d 130 (2010).

Murillo is not entitled to statutory “gap” tolling between the denial of his first petition in the California Superior Court and the filing of his second petition in that same court, because his second petition added seven new claims. See Stancle v. Clay, 692 F.3d 948, 957-58 (9th Cir.2012).

We need not consider Murillo’s other arguments for tolling because they would not provide enough tolling to make his petition timely.

AFFIRMED.
