How courts have described this case

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

  • concluding that Ring is not a watershed rule that implicates the fundamental fairness of the trial and that Ring “does not meet either of the exceptions” in Teague
  • concluding under the Linkletter test that \the [Arizona] justice system's good faith reliance on Walton v. Arizona weighs against retroactivity\
  • noting that \[c]ertainly the Arizona justice system acted in good faith in applying the holding of Walton until the Court overruled its decade-old decision\
  • noting that for purposes of a Rule 32 PCR petition, the court must determine whether the new law “applies retroactively to the [defendant’s] sentences
  • concluding that Ring does not apply retroactively
  • Ring “imposes a new bur- den on the state. Thus we conclude that Ring [satisfes Rule 32.1(g)]”
