Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- recognizing that “[a] failure to cite Supreme Court decisions does not itself suggest a state court decision is ‘contrary to’ such precedents” .... “ ‘so long as neither the reasoning nor the result of the state-court decision contradicts them’ ”
- finding equivalence where a state court considers all of the factors explicitly considered by its federal counterpart
- \The SJC's approach in addressing Dagley's claim [relying on Massachusetts state law] was similar in substance to the approach taken by the Supreme Court[.]\
