MEMORANDUM **
California state prisoner Jeffry Ian Cook appeals from the district court’s judgment denying his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas petition. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 2253, and we affirm.
Cook contends that the Board of Prison Hearings’s 2004 decision finding him unsuitable for parole is not supported by some evidence and was otherwise improper. The only right at issue in the parole context is procedural, and the only proper inquiry is what process the inmate received, not whether the state court decided the case correctly. See Swarthout v. Cooke,—U.S.—,—-—, 131 S.Ct. 859, 862-63, 178 L.Ed.2d 732 (2011) (per curiam). Because Cook raises no procedural challenges, we affirm.
AFFIRMED.
