How courts have described this case

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

• “Structural errors occur only in a very small class of cases, such as when a trial judge is actually biased.”
• “Because this court granted a COA only on the issue of whether the appearance of bias was a structural error, any claim of actual bias is not properly before the court.” (citing 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c); Lackey, 116 F.3d at 151-52)
