Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether the Third Circuit erred in holding that United States v. Powell precludes consideration of the jury's other verdicts when conducting harmless error review

Question Presented (OCR Extract)

QUESTIONS PRESENTED 1. Whether the Third Circuit erred, in conflict with decisions of the Second and Ninth Circuits, when it held that this Court’s decision in United States v. Powell, 469 U.S. 57 (1984), precludes consideration of the jury’s other verdicts when conducting harmless error review. 2. Whether the Third Circuit erred, in conflict with decisions of other circuits, in holding that AEDPA requires factual deference to a state court noprejudice finding that did not apply federal prejudice standards. 3. Whether this case should, at a minimum, be held for this Court’s decision in No. 20-826, Brown v. Davenport, which presents related issues concerning the interaction between AEDPA and federal prejudice standards on collateral review. i LIST OF
