   MEMORANDUM

Brian O’Keefe appeals the decision of the district court dismissing his petition for a writ of habeas corpus. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2253, and we vacate the district court’s decision and remand the case for further proceedings.

O’Keefe filed the instant habeas petition challenging his Nevada state court conviction of murder with a deadly weapon. The district court summarily dismissed the petition, holding that O’Keefe’s state remedies were unexhausted.

We review the district court’s dismissal of O’Keefe’s petition de novo. United States v. Avery, 719 F.3d 1080, 1082 (9th Cir. 2013). O’Keefe’s petition, consisting of 25 handwritten pages and 275 pages of exhibits, contained at least one claim that was clearly exhausted—his double jeopardy claim, which was presented to the Nevada Supreme Court on direct appeal and expressly addressed by that court. See Baldwin v. Reese, 541 U.S. 27, 29, 124 S.Ct. 1347, 158 L.Ed.2d 64 (2004) (quoting Duncan v. Henry, 513 U.S. 364, 365, 115 S.Ct. 887, 130 L.Ed.2d 865 (1995)). While there are unexhausted claims within the petition, for example, the claimed violation of his Sixth Amendment rights, O’Keefe’s petition is a “mixed” petition because it contains both exhausted and unexhausted claims. Robbins v. Carey, 481 F.3d 1143, 1147 (9th Cir. 2007).

Mixed petitions, though not subject to adjudication in federal court, cannot be dismissed unless the petitioner has, “at a minimum, be[en] offered leave to amend the petition to delete any unexhausted claims and to proceed on the exhausted claims.” Henderson v. Johnson, 710 F.3d 872, 873 (9th Cir. 2013). The district court thus erred in dismissing O’Keefe’s petition without granting him the opportunity to amend his petition in this way.

The district court’s decision is vacated and the case is remanded. The pending motions for judicial notice are granted. O’Keefe’s petition for a writ of mandamus is denied. Each party shall bear its own costs.

VACATED and REMANDED.
