Premo v. Harris
Petition for certiorari denied on December 15, 2014
Issue: Whether, if a state appellate court rejects an unpreserved federal claim after assessing whether the "plain error" exception to state preservation requirements permitted review, but does not explain its reasoning, a federal habeas court should conclude that the state court ruled on the federal claim"s merits, such that federal court review is appropriate.
