How courts have described this case

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

• “[A] district court may dismiss a baseless ‘claim’ under Rule 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for failure to state a claim for relief . . . where such a claim is wholly insubstantial and frivolous.”
• “When a Rule 60 motion attacks the substance of the federal court’s resolution of a petition’s claim on the merits, as opposed to a defect in the integrity of the habeas proceeding, it is not truly a Rule 60 motion — it is a successive habeas petition.”
