Kizer v. Uchtman, No. 04-2763, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SEVENTH CIRCUIT, February 3, 2006, Submitted
View this case - free  

Overview: District court erred in concluding that an inmate's habeas corpus claims were procedurally defaulted where the state courts rejected his attempts to use hybrid representation. Because the state courts could have, in their discretion, considered the claims the inmate attempted to raise in supplemental pro se briefs, there was no procedural default.
