   MEMORANDUM

Alfonso Gonzalez appeals the district court’s denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habe-as corpus petition claiming that the California state trial court violated his due process rights by failing to order a competency hearing sua sponte and conducting his trial while he was incompetent. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

1. The California Court of Appeal reasonably determined that the evidence was not sufficient to raise a “bona fide doubt” as to Gonzalez’s competency to stand trial. Pate v. Robinson, 383 U.S. 375, 385, 86 S.Ct. 836, 15 L.Ed.2d 815 (1966); Odie v. Woodford, 238 F.3d 1084, 1087 (9th Cir. 2001). The record does not compel a finding that Gonzalez had the kind of “history of pronounced irrational behavior” that would require a trial court to order a competency hearing. Pate, 383 U.S. at 386, 86 S.Ct. 836; see also Drope v. Missouri, 420 U.S. 162, 180, 95 S.Ct. 896, 43 L.Ed.2d 103 (1975) (holding that irrational behavior alone may, in some circumstances, be sufficient to require a competency hearing). Accordingly, we defer to the state court’s decision, as it was not based on an unreasonable application of the law or an unreasonable determination of the facts. 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d)(1), (2); see also Davis v. Ayala, — U.S. -, 135 S.Ct. 2187, 2198, 192 L.Ed.2d 323 (2015).

2. We also defer to the California Court of Appeal’s summary denial of Gonzalez’s claim that he was tried while actually incompetent because there was a reasonable basis for the ruling. See Haney v. Adams, 641 F.3d 1168, 1171 (9th Cir. 2011). The evidence before the. state court on Gonzalez’s habeas corpus petition did not definitively prove that he did not understand the proceedings against him or was unable to consult with his attorney. See Godinez v. Moran, 509 U.S. 389, 396, 113 S.Ct. 2680, 125 L.Ed.2d 321 (1993).

AFFIRMED.
