131203P.pdf   07/02/2014  Tyrone White  v.  Lynn Dingle
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  13-1203
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
[PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Wollman and Melloy, Circuit Judges] Prisoner case - Habeas. While White's counsel should have investigated a potential workplace connection between a juror and the victim's roommate, the omission did not render counsel ineffective under Strickland as White has failed to present any evidence the two people knew each other or any evidence of bias; the court expands White's certificate of appealability to review his claim of juror partiality, but the claim is rejected as the state court's finding that White had failed to show partiality is not unreasonable; district court did not err in denying White's request for an evidentiary hearing.
