Farrar v. Williams
Petition for certiorari denied on October 5, 2020
Issue: Whether the due process clause is violated when
the prosecution relies on material, perjured testimony to secure a conviction but did not know the testimony was perjured until after the trial, as six courts
have held, or whether the prosecution’s contemporaneous knowledge of the perjured testimony is required, as eight courts have held.
