Description
SMITH, Circuit Judge. The state respondents appeal from the district court's grant of a writ of habeas corpus conferred on the basis of evidence newly discovered after petitioner John Lee Boyd's state trial and conviction for murder, for which he received a life sentence. Concluding that the district court's determination is contrary to binding precedent from the Supreme Court and this court, we reverse and render.
