Stokes v. Delo
495 U.S. 926 | SCOTUS | 1990
Lead Opinion
Application for stay of execution of sentence of death, presented to Justice Blackmun, and by him referred to the Court, denied.
Dissenting Opinion
dissenting.
Adhering to our views that the death penalty is in all circumstances cruel and unusual punishment prohibited by the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments, Gregg v. Georgia, 428 U. S. 153, 227, 231 (1976), we would grant the application for stay of execution.
