   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  00-3891
   Western District of Missouri   
Prisoner case - habeas. Chapter154 of the Anti-Terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 did not apply to petitioner because Missouri Supreme Court Rule 29.16 was not in place until the day after the Office of the Public Defender selected attorneys to represent petitioner in his state post-conviction proceeding; case remanded to the district court to determine whether Missouri Supreme Court Rule 29.16 is a satisfactory opt-in mechanism under the Act.
