¶1 MEMORANDUM *

¶2 Washington inmate Kenneth Klym appeals the district court’s denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas corpus petition challenging his conviction and sentence for *586 stalking and first-degree assault. The state appeals court’s affirmance of the trial court’s denial of his pro se motion for access to a law library did not unreasonably deny his clearly established federal rights, as determined by the Supreme Court, to self-representation, see Kane v. Garcia Espitia, 546 U.S. 9, 10, 126 S.Ct. 407, 163 L.Ed.2d 10 (2005), or to meaningful access to the courts, see Lewis v. Casey, 518 U.S. 343, 351, 116 S.Ct. 2174, 135 L.Ed.2d 606 (1996). Accordingly, the district court did not err in denying habeas relief.

¶3 AFFIRMED.
