Valenzuela v. Cliett

Petition for certiorari denied on May 20, 2013

Docket No.	Op. Below	Argument	Opinion	Vote	Author	Term
12-773	9th Cir.	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	OT 2012

Issue: Whether, when a custodial suspect upon Miranda advice literally states that he chooses to remain silent, "clearly established Federal law" both (1) prohibits a state court from considering objective circumstances suggesting that the suspect did not intend to invoke his right; and (2) precludes the police from briefly asking the suspect to confirm his intent, so long as they commence any interrogation only after the suspect then explicitly agrees to talk.
