The following excerpt is from Metts-Montez v. Pallares, 2:21-cv-0400 JAM KJN P (E.D. Cal. 2021):
Petitioner did not file the second state court petition until July 16, 2020. Because the limitations period previously expired on July 28, 2016, prior to the filing of petitioner's second state habeas petition, and no state court petition was pending at that time, the petition is time-barred. Ferguson, 321 F.3d at 823; Davis v. Johnson, 359 F.Supp.3d 831, 862 (2019) ([O]nce the federal statute of limitations has run, a newly filed state petition does not reset the clock.).
