United States Eleventh Circuit
Chavers v. Secretary, Fla. Dep't. of Corr., 05-15163
Dismissal of habeas petition as barred by the one-year statute of limitations of the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 is affirmed as the one-year limitations period began to run 90 days from the affirmance of petitioner's conviction by the state appellate court, which is when the time for seeking Supreme Court review expired, and the petition was filed after that one-year period.
