153607P.pdf   04/14/2017  Glen Allen  v.  United States
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  15-3607
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Arkansas - Hot Springs   
   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Benton, 
   Circuit Judge] 
   Prisoner case - habeas. For the court's opinion in Allen's direct appeal, 
   see U.S. v. Allen, 705 F.3d 367 (8th Cir. 2013). Allen failed to show a 
   substantial likelihood that he would have accepted the offer to plead 
   guilty pursuant to the more favorable terms offered prior to the 
   suppression hearing if his attorney had advised him of the possibility of 
   a life sentence; the district court did not err in denying the habeas 
   petition without an evidentiary hearing.
