The Supreme Court granted certiorari in this federal habeas corpus appeal to determine whether the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 controlled the appellate proceedings and whether a certificate of appealability could issue under that statute's requirements. The Court restored the case to its calendar for reargument and directed the parties to submit supplemental briefs addressing these procedural questions regarding death penalty habeas review.
