READ

The circuit court affirms the district court's decision, and adopts its opinion in Stoltie v. California, 501 F. Supp.2d 1252 (C.D. Cal. 2007), except for one section as to which it expresses no view, where: 1) the state appellate court misunderstood the confused and confusing explanation of reasonable doubt provided to the jury by the trial judge; and 2) this error led it to apply clearly established Supreme Court law regarding reasonable doubt in an unreasonable manner.
