United States Fourth Circuit
Teleguz v. Pearson, 11-9
District court's dismissal of defendant's petition for habeas relief from his capital murder conviction and sentence of death is vacated and remanded, as the district court abused its discretion in failing to conduct a sound and thorough analysis of defendant's Schlup gateway innocence claim as required by Wolfe v. Johnson.
