UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

TENTH CIRCUIT

DARRON EDWARDS,

Petitioner-Appellant,

v.

DAVID MCKUNE; STATE OF KANSAS,

Respondents-Appellees.	No. 02-3208

(D.C. No. 01-CV-3425-DES)

(Kansas)

ORDER AND JUDGMENT*

Before SEYMOUR, HENRY, and BRISCOE, Circuit Judges.

Darron Edwards, a pro se state prisoner, filed this petition for habeas corpus relief on October 18, 2001, challenging his state court conviction in 1992. The district court dismissed the application upon concluding that it was barred under the one year period of limitation imposed by the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act (AEDPA), enacted April 24, 1996. In so holding, the district court recognized that under 28 U.S.C. § 2244(d)(2) the period is tolled during the time a properly filed application for state post-conviction relief is pending, and held that under this tolling provision the limitation period began running on May 31, 1996, and expired one year later on May 31, 1997.

We grant Mr. Edwards' motion to supplement the record regarding the tolling of the statute of limitations. We acknowledge that for some of the intervening time, various pending motions tolled the statute of limitations. However, because the last of these was decided by an order of the Kansas Supreme Court on June 6, 1997, even if the entire time up to that point had been tolled, it still would have expired by June 6, 1998. Thus, Mr. Edwards' motion for state post conviction relief filed February 12, 1999 would itself have no tolling effect.

This petition for habeas relief was filed October 18, 2001, well past the expiration of the limitation period. Accordingly, we GRANT Mr. Edwards' motion to supplement the record, DENY his request for a certificate of appealability, and DISMISS the appeal.
