Wainwright v. Sexton
Petition for certiorari denied on January 11, 2021
Issues: (1) Whether federal courts can award habeas relief based on
errors in state-postconviction proceedings; and (2) whether, if errors in state-postconviction proceedings
sometimes provide a basis for habeas relief, a habeas petitioner can win relief based on such errors even if
he did not diligently pursue the proceedings in which
the errors occurred.
