062519P.pdf   04/16/2007  Broderick Collier  v.  Larry Norris
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  06-2519
                          and No:  06-2630
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock   
   [PUBLISHED][Gruender, Author, with Loken, Chief Judge, and
   O'Connor, Associate Justice (Ret.)]
Prisoner case - habeas. Evidence in the state court record was more than sufficient to support the Arkansas Supreme Court's determination that Collier failed to show Brady prejudice because the suppression of evidence which could have been used to impeach a state's witness was not sufficient to create a reasonable probability that the trial would have had a different outcome if Collier had been aware of the evidence; Arkansas Supreme Court did not engage in an unreasonable application of Brady in reaching that decision; Arkansas Supreme Court disposed of Collier's Rule 37 petition based on an independent and adequate state procedural rule, and Collier's failure to show cause and prejudice or actual innocence meant he had forfeited his right to raise claim in federal court.
