Tuesday audio. Before the beginning of class next Tuesday, please meet: 1) with opposing counsel to pick sides (petitioner is the loser below) and 2) with co-justice to decide who is chief. I will collect the info at the start of class on Tuesday.
We pick up with the question we left on: Why impose these limits on habeas review?
Prep the rest of Chapter 7, focusing on Heck. Have a look at this Fourth Circuit case (only 9 pages) on the statute of limitations for actions under § 1981(c) after 1991.
I hope to finish Procedure on Monday but in any event early Tuesday. Abstention should be ready to go on Tuesday.
BTW, the absenteeism is still too high. We have not had all 18 people in class in several weeks. The expectation is that you attend every class.
