David Piercy v. Charles Black, Warden, Nebraska State Prison the Nebraska Board of Parole, Etc.

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• finding prisoner properly exhausted state remedies for two claims and was excused from exhaustion for one claim and thus reaching the claims’ merits
• finding petitioner suffered no constitutional deprivation where two state sentences were not run concurrently because he “failed to show that either Iowa or Nebraska has created . . . a liberty interest [in concurrent sentencing], and it seems plain that they have not”
• a decision on the same question of law, under almost identical facts, made state court remedies futile
