Gonzalez v. Thaler

564 U.S. 1003 | SCOTUS | 2011

Petition for writ of cer-tiorari to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit granted limited to the following questions: (1) Was there jurisdiction to issue a certificate of appeal-ability under 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c) and to adjudicate petitioner’s appeal? (2) Was the application for writ of habeas corpus out of time under 28 U.S.C. § 2244(d)(1) due to “the date on which the judgment became final by the conclusion of direct review or the expiration of the time for seeking such review”?
