Petition for certiorari denied on October 7, 2019
Docket No. Op. Below Argument Opinion Vote Author Term
18-1320 9th Cir. N/A N/A N/A N/A OT 2019

Issues: (1) Whether an amended judgment of conviction containing only nominal changes—that does not disturb the original conviction and sentence—should be considered a new judgment that renews a state inmate’s ability to challenge his conviction and sentence; and (2) whether, if a new judgment of conviction is entered, a petitioner who already sought federal habeas relief must obtain authorization to file a second or successive petition under 28 U.S.C. § 2244(b), in order to challenge undisturbed elements of the original judgment.
