Does the statute of limitations for a federal habeas petition apply to a state application for relief under the AEDPA?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Sith v. Virga, No. 2:11-cv-00620 DAD P (E.D. Cal. 2014):

With the tolling of seven days during the pendency of petitioner's first state habeas petition in the San Joaquin County Superior Court, the limitations period for him to seek federal habeas relief was extended to November 17, 2010. None of the habeas petitions filed by petitioner after that date could serve to statutorily toll the AEDPA statute of limitations which had already expired. See Ferguson v. Palmateer, 321 F.3d 820, 823 (9th Cir. 2003) (holding that the filing of a state petition after the federal limitations period has expired has no effect).
