How courts have described this case

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

two situations render decision “contrary to” Supreme Court law — when the state court failed to apply the proper Supreme Court precedent or because the state court reached a different conclusion on substantially similar facts
\[T]he mere fact that a district court disagrees with a state court does not render that state court's decision `unreasonable'; certainly two courts can differ over the proper resolution of a close question without either viewpoint being unreasonable.\
