Published: Nov. 3, 2017, 9:28 p.m.

Habeas Corpus: Did the Court's decision in Harrington v. Richter, 562 U.S. 86 (2011), silently abrogate the presumption set forth in Ylst v. Nunnemaker, 501 U.S. 797 (1991) - that a federal court sitting in habeas proceedings should "look through" a summary state court ruling to review the last reasoned decision? - Argued: Mon, 30 Oct 2017 00:00:00 EST
