Thornell v. Jones, No. 22-982 [Arg: 4.17.2024]

Supreme Court of the United States

QUESTION PRESENTED:

• Whether the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit violated this court’s precedents by employing a flawed methodology for assessing prejudice under Strickland v. Washington when it disregarded the district court’s factual and credibility findings and excluded evidence in aggravation and the state’s rebuttal when it reversed the district court and granted habeas relief.
