    Eulalio GUERRERO, II, Petitioner-Appellant, v. Frank X. CHAVEZ, Respondent-Appellee.
    No. 11-16333.
    United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.
    Argued and Submitted Sept. 9, 2013.
    Filed Sept. 19, 2013.
    Michael Bradley Bigelow, Esquire, Sacramento, CA, for Petitioner-Appellant.
    Before: SCHROEDER and BYBEE, Circuit Judges, and BATTAGLIA, District Judge.
    
    
      
       The Honorable Anthony J. Battaglia, United States District Judge for the Southern District of California, sitting by designation.
    
   MEMORANDUM

California State prisoner Eulalio Guerrero appeals the district court’s dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas corpus petition challenging his 2006 child molestation conviction after a jury trial. The district court dismissed the petition as untimely because it was filed more than one year after the state conviction became final. 28 U.S.C. § 2244(d)(1). Petitioner claims that he is entitled to equitable tolling.

The Supreme Court has held that a petitioner is entitled to equitable tolling only if he has been diligent, and extraordinary circumstances prevented him from timely filing. Holland v. Florida, 560 U.S. 681, 180 S.Ct. 2549, 2562, 177 L.Ed.2d 130 (2010). Petitioner’s only argument is that he relied for two years on his daughter’s representations that she would find him a lawyer. Guerrero was not diligent, for he has made no showing that he made efforts to obtain counsel himself or make use of the prison law library. See Bills v. Clark, 628 F.3d 1092, 1101 (9th Cir.2010) (to be diligent, must make use of whatever assistance is available). There are no extraordinary circumstances similar to the abandonment by counsel that occurred in Maples v. Thomas, — U.S. -, 132 S.Ct. 912, 181 L.Ed.2d 807 (2012).

AFFIRMED.
