United States Ninth Circuit

The district court properly denied a habeas corpus petition challenging a murder conviction, where the state trial court’s compromise to have either a neutral laboratory or the defense expert test a blood sample, but only if the results were made available to both parties, was neither contrary to nor an unreasonable application of clearly established federal law. (Amended opinion)
