Cone v. Bell

By standdown

At SCOTUS Blog, Jason Harrow notes, "Reply Brief in Cone v. Bell."Yesterday, Akin Gump and the Stanford Clinic filed this reply brief in the case of Cone v. Bell. The issue is whether a federal habeas claim is ?procedurally defaulted? because it has been presented twice to the state courts, and whether a federal habeas court is powerless to recognize that a state court erred in holding that state law precludes reviewing a claim.He adds that the case is "scheduled to be considered at the Conference of June 5."
