How courts have described this case

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

  • “[T]his court believes that the 13 Supreme Court suggested a more expansive definition of ‘good cause’ in Pace and Rhines than the showing needed for ‘cause’ to excuse a procedural default.”
  • “Reasonable confusion on the part of a petitioner is less stringent than acts that have been found sufficient to establish cause for procedural default.” (citation omitted)
  • “[U]nlike the procedural default situation where a petitioner is barred from presenting his claims to state courts, Rhines is not barred from presenting his claim to the state court.”
