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

  • witness’ in-court identification of habeas petitioner during state trial was not a violation of due process despite witness’ failure to identify petitioner in photo spread and petitioner’s presence at pretrial suppression hearing
  • argument that admission of wooden clubs found at defendant’s house was unconstitutional due to lack of evidence linking clubs to crimes “presents state-law foundation and admissibility questions that raise no federal habeas issues”
