Whether a state court unreasonably applies the Strickland standard when evaluating habeas petitioner's ineffective assistance of counsel claim by failing to comprehensively review trial record
QUESTIONS PRESENTED 1. Whether a state court that applies a sufficiency of the evidence standard to determine a habeas petitioner was not prejudiced by his trial counsel’s deficient performance acts contrary to or unreasonably applies the clearly established standard set forth in Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668 (1984). 2. Whether a state court that fails to consider the entire trial record before determining a habeas petitioner was not prejudiced by his trial counsel’s deficient performance acts contrary to Strickland and its progeny, and unreasonably determines the facts under 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d)(2).
