denial of his parole. In light of Swarthout v. Cooke, 131 S. Ct. 859 (2011) (per

does not argue that he was denied an opportunity to speak at his hearing and

contest the evidence against him, that he was denied access to his record in

advance, or that he was not notified of the reasons why parole was denied. See id.

at 862. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s denial of his habeas petition.

      AFFIRMED.
