U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 08-2755
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock
[PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Hansen, Circuit Judge, and
Webber, District Judge]
Prisoner case -habeas. Nelson's unverified state court post-conviction

limitations for filing a federal habeas because the petition was not filed in
accordance with the state rule's verification requirement; Nelson is not
entitled to equitable tolling.
