United States Ninth Circuit

Judgment denying an application for habeas corpus is reversed and remanded with instructions to grant the application, where: 1) the prosecutor's factually-erroneous stated reason for striking Hispanic Venireperson 4968 - that she didn't have children - was pretextual; and 2) the petitioner's state court proceedings resulted in a decision that was based on an unreasonable determination of the facts in light of the evidence presented.
