Stirling v. Bryant
Petition for certiorari denied on May 16, 2022
Issue: Whether, in review of a claim fully adjudicated in state court, the district court violated 28 U.S.C. § 2254’s
deference mandate and offended the principles of finality
and federalism by upsetting a capital sentence based
on mere disagreement with record-supported state
court fact-findings.
