Overview: Prisoner's assertion that California's untimeliness rule, which barred review when there had been substantial delay without good cause, was inadequate was sufficient to place adequacy of rule at issue when court had previously found rule to be too ambiguous to bar federal habeas review. Thus, burden shifted to government to prove rule's adequacy.
