Docket No.	Op. Below	Argument	Opinion	Vote	Author	Term
21-1044	4th Cir.	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	OT 2021

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.
