   MEMORANDUM

Glen Aaron White appeals the district court’s denial of his habeas corpus petition. White argues that: he was denied an opportunity to fully litigate a Fourth Amendment claim; the state court unconstitutionally limited his ability to cross-examine a prosecution witness; and the exclusion of certain evidence unconstitutionally restricted his right to present a defense. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 and affirm.

We first consider whether White was denied the opportunity to litigate his Fourth Amendment claim. A federal habeas court may review Fourth Amendment claims only if the state court proceeding denied the applicant an “opportunity for full and fair litigation of a Fourth Amend-merit claim.” Stone v. Powell, 428 U.S. 465, 482, 96 S.Ct. 3037, 49 L.Ed.2d 1067 (1976). Because White’s Fourth Amendment claims were heard and considered by the state courts, he was afforded a full and fair opportunity to litigate those claims. See Ortiz-Sandoval v. Gomez, 81 F.3d 891, 899 (9th Cir.1996); Locks v. Sumner, 703 F.2d 403, 408 (9th Cir.1983).

We next address whether White’s Sixth Amendment confrontation rights were violated when the trial court limited the scope of his cross-examination of the prosecution’s investigator. The trial court excluded the evidence because it determined that the probative value of the evidence was outweighed by the danger that its admission would create undue prejudice (to either or both parties) or that its admission would confuse the jury. White’s rights were not violated by the limitation of cross-examination; such a limitation was consistent with Delaware v. Van Arsdall, 475 U.S. 673, 106 S.Ct. 1431, 89 L.Ed.2d 674 (1986), and was neither contrary to nor an unreasonable application of clearly established Supreme Court law. See 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d).

Finally, we consider whether the exclusion of prior-conduct evidence with respect to his companion violated White’s due process rights under the Fourteenth Amendment. A federal court reviewing a state conviction on application for a writ of habeas corpus may not “ ‘engage in a finely tuned review of the wisdom of state evidentiary rules.’ ” Estelle v. McGuire, 502 U.S. 62, 72, 112 S.Ct. 475, 116 L.Ed.2d 385 (1991) (quoting Marshall v. Lonberger, 459 U.S. 422, 103 S.Ct. 843, 74 L.Ed.2d 646 (1983)). The appropriate inquiry is whether the evidentiary ruling, right or wrong, so “infected the trial that the resulting conviction violates due process.” Id. White’s claim fails because the state court’s balancing of the factors was neither contrary to nor an unreasonable application of federal law as established by the Supreme Court. See 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d).

AFFIRMED.
