Whether the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals violated petitioner's fundamental rights by ruling that the California Courts reasonably applied this Court's decisions, including Maryland v. Craig and Coy v. Iowa, in rejecting petitioner's claim of a Confrontation Clause violation on direct appeal, where the state court permitted 17-year-old complaining witness to respond to all questions on cross-examination by writing out her answers, after which the presiding judge recited the witness's answers to the jury

Question Presented The sole question raised by this Petition for Certiorari is whether the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals violated petitioner’s fundamental rights by ruling that the California Courts reasonably applied this Court’s decisions, including Maryland v. Craig, 497 U.S. 836 (1990), and Coy v. Iowa, 487 U.S. 1012 (1988), in rejecting petitioner’s claim of a Confrontation Clause violation on direct appeal, where the state court permitted 17-year-old complaining witness to respond to all questions on cross-examination by writing out her answers, after which the presiding judge recited the witness’s answers to the jury.
