View this case - free  

Overview: Petition for review of a BIA order which summarily affirmed an IJ's denial of asylum was granted.

The IJ's finding also infected the IJ's inquiry whether she had a reasonable fear of future persecution.

View this case - free  

Overview: Inmate's 28 U.S.C.S. § 2254 habeas petition was properly denied because he procedurally defaulted an ineffective assistance of counsel claim by failing to renew it on appeal from the denial of a Mo. Sup. Ct. R. 29.15(a) post-conviction motion and default was not excused by his belief that a state court's rulings hampered development of the claim.

View this case - free  

Overview: Defendant's 70-month sentence for conspiracy to distribute and possess methamphetamine was reasonable because it comported with the plea agreement, the district court showed leniency by sentencing at the bottom of the advisory guidelines range, and the criminal history points were based on sentences imposed within 10 years.

View this case - free  

Overview: Defendant who pled guilty to drug possession was not entitled to plain-error relief for her sentencing under mandatory guidelines because, given the identical alternative discretionary sentence, the record did not establish a reasonable probability that the district court would have imposed a more favorable sentence under advisory guidelines.
