                ORDER (BIBAS, PHIPPS and NYGAARD, Circuit Judges) Pennsylvania inmate Leon Howard seeks authorization under 28 U.S.C. 2244 to file a second or successive habeas petition under 28 U.S.C. 2254. The motion and the supporting documents attached thereto are sufficient for the Court to assess whether the motion satisfies the standard for authorization under 2244(b); any technical non-compliance with 3d Cir. L.A.R. 22.5(a) (2011) has been excused. Howards unopposed motion to file under seal an unredacted version of the 2244 motion is granted. The unredacted filing will be sealed for twenty-five (25) years. The 2244 motion itself is denied because Howard fails to prima facie show that, in light of his new evidenceand but for constitutional errorno reasonable factfinder would have found [him] guilty of the underlying offense. 28 U.S.C. 2244(b)(2)(B)(ii); cf. Goldblum v. Klem, 510 F.3d 204, 227 (3d Cir. 2007) (explaining that the new evidence must be so persuasive and exculpatory that all 12 members of a jury who voted to convict . . . now would change their minds to the end that it is more likely than not that none of them would vote to convict[]). Insofar as Howard requests a stay of the proceedings, that request is denied. Panel No.: CLD-050. BIBAS, Authoring Judge. (AMR) [Entered: 12/19/2025 01:03 PM]

                TEXT ORDER (Clerk) [25-3247, 25-3240] Petitioners filed redacted versions of their applications under 28 U.S.C. Section: 2244. The Clerk directed the parties to file an unredacted application and accompanying motion to seal. On November 18, 2025, petitioners filed motions to for leave to file the investigative documents and unredacted pleadings under seal. However, the motions did not attach the proposed sealed materials. Petitioners must file the proposed sealed materials, or explain why such materials may not be filed at this time, within three (3) days of the date of this order. Petitioners should use "SEALED" electronic-filing events when filing the proposed sealed documents via CM/ECF. The Clerk will hold the investigative file and unredacted version of the application provisionally under seal pending a ruling by the Court. (SHP) [Entered: 11/21/2025 01:27 PM]
