    No. 03-20566.
    Summary Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Decided June 16, 2006.
    Alfred Paul Aldaco, pro se.
    
      Gretchen Berumen Merenda, Assistant Attorney General, Office of the Attorney General for the State of Texas, Austin, TX, for Respondent-Appellee.
    Before SMITH, GARZA, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Prisoner Alfred Aldaco appeals the dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas corpus application, challenging the outcome of his 2001 parole hearing. He contends that the application of a 1995 provision of Texas parole law — increasing, for his case, the number of votes for parole from 2-out-of-3 to 12-out-of-18, violated the Ex Post Facto Clause because it increased the punishment for his offense.

In state court, Aldaco presented the hearing minutes showing that two board members had voted for his release on parole. Aldaco, however, presented no evidence in state court, and did not allege in his state habeas petition, that those two members would have sat on the three-member panel that would have considered him for parole under the former statutory scheme.

Aldaco did not present sufficient evidence in state court to demonstrate that the application of the post-1995 statute created a sufficient risk of increased punishment to warrant habeas relief. See Cal. Dep’t of Corrections v. Morales, 514 U.S. 499, 509, 115 S.Ct. 1597, 131 L.Ed.2d 588 (1995); Goodwin v. Dretke, 150 Fed.Appx. 295, 300 (5th Cir.2005). The state court’s rejection of Aldaco’s claim was not an unreasonable application of the law, based on the facts presented to it. See 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d).

AFFIRMED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
