Lee v. Watson
Petition for certiorari denied on July 14, 2020Linked with:
Issues: Whether (1) the court of appeals below erred in holding that the “savings clause” is unavailable where the circuit having § 2255 venue imposes a categorical structural bar on federal inmates seeking redress for a meritorious Sixth Amendment violation; and (2) whether a defendant advancing a Brady claim due to the prosecution’s long concealment of evidence deemed material must also demonstrate that he or she could not have uncovered some part of the suppressed evidence through the exercise of due diligence.
