OPINION
WERDEGAR, J.-
On January 22, 1989, Brian Seabourn shot and killed Kenneth Lawton Stewart. In the years that followed, three men were held criminally accountable for Stewart's death. Petitioner Dennis Harold Lawley was tried, convicted of first degree murder with special circumstances, and sentenced to death for hiring Brian Seabourn and Steven Mendonca to kill Stewart. Seabourn was tried and convicted of second degree murder. (People v. Seabourn (Super. Ct. Stanislaus County, 1990, No. 244904).) Steven Mendonca pleaded guilty to second degree murder for assisting Seabourn. (People v. Mendonca (Super. Ct. Stanislaus County, 1990, No. 255043).) We affirmed Lawley's conviction and sentence on automatic appeal. (People v. Lawley (2002) 27 Cal.4th 102 (Lawley).)
