Date Filed Document Text
July 17, 2019 Filing 2 Filed order (MARY M. SCHROEDER, BARRY G. SILVERMAN and RICHARD R. CLIFTON) In this application for authorization to file a second or successive 28 U.S.C. 2254 habeas corpus petition in the district court, the applicant contends that he was denied the effective assistance of counsel at trial. The applicant raised multiple allegations of ineffective assistance of trial counsel in a petition for writ of habeas corpus, filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Washington, case number 2:02-cv-05086, decided on February 14, 2003. Accordingly, this claim is dismissed. See 28 U.S.C. 2244(b)(1); Babbitt v. Woodford, 177 F.3d 744, 746 (9th Cir. 1999) ([W]e will not consider new factual grounds in support of the same legal claim that was previously presented.). With respect to the applicants remaining claim of actual innocence, assuming without deciding that the applicant may bring a freestanding actual innocence claim, the application is denied. There were no declarations or affidavits submitted with this application. Assuming, however, that the allegations in the application can be substantiated with competent evidence, the applicant nevertheless has not made a prima facie showing under 28 U.S.C. 2244(b)(2)(B) that (i) the factual predicate for the claim could not have been discovered previously through the exercise of due diligence; and (ii) the facts underlying the claim, if proven and viewed in light of the evidence as a whole, would be sufficient to establish by clear and convincing evidence that, but for constitutional error, no reasonable factfinder would have found the applicant guilty of the underlying offense. Any pending motions are denied as moot. No further filings will be entertained in this case. DISMISSED in part; DENIED in part. [11365988] (WL) [Entered: 07/17/2019 09:12 AM]
May 20, 2019 Filing 1 Application for leave to file a second or successive petition filed. (Research) [11302330] (JMR) [Entered: 05/20/2019 09:24 AM]
