MEMORANDUM **
In these consolidated appeals, former federal prisoner Eugene Darrell Rutledge appeals pro se from the district court’s order denying his petition for a writ of error coram nobis. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Rutledge seeks to vacate two prior federal convictions, claiming that his guilty pleas were constitutionally deficient and that his trial counsel was ineffective. Because Rutledge has not alleged valid reasons for failing to attack the convictions earlier, he is not entitled to a writ of coram nobis. See United States v. Kwan, 407 F.3d 1005, 1011 (9th Cir.2005) abrogated on other grounds by Padilla v. Kentucky, - U.S. -, 130 S.Ct. 1473, 176 L.Ed.2d 284 (2010); see also Maghe v. United States, 710 F.2d 503, 503-04 (9th Cir.1983).
AFFIRMED.
