   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Melloy, Author, with Wollman Circuit Judge, and
   Nangle, District Judge]
Prisoner Case - habeas. Substituted opinion. Minnesota courts did not apply Brady and other case law in an unreasonable manner when it found that failure to provide Pederson with a copy of a summary of a witness's testimony was not a Brady violation; in its entirety, the prosecutor's closing argument was not such that it so infected the trial with unfairness as to make it a violation of Pederson's due process rights; there was viable evidence to show Pederson was denied the presumption of innocence during the jury's deliberations. 062582P.pdf 06/13/2007 Ryan M.
