|
Overview: Although Sixth Circuit did not have an absolute rule that a habeas court must review the entire state-court record, district court could not properly assess the sufficiency of the evidence in a state prisoner's case without reviewing the entire trial transcript. Thus, it should have required submission of the transcript under 28 U.S.C.S. § 2254(f).
