Mays v. Hines

Pending petition

Docket No.	Op. Below	Argument	Opinion	Vote	Author	Term
20-507	6th Cir.	TBD	TBD	TBD	TBD	TBD

Issue: Whether the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit’s decision — invalidating Anthony Hines' decades-old murder conviction and death sentence on the ground that a state court unreasonably applied Strickland v. Washington, when it concluded that Hines suffered no prejudice from any deficiencies in his counsel’s performance at the guilt and penalty phases of his capital trial — conflicts with the Supreme Court’s precedents governing claims of ineffective assistance of counsel under the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996.
