United States Ninth Circuit

Reversing an order denying a criminal defendant's petition for resentencing and remanding for a risk determination in the case of a convict whose prior conviction in Texas could render him ineligible for resentencing despite having taken place in another state, but was not rendered ineligible because the specific conviction at issue might not have been classed as a murder in California.
