162349P.pdf   04/06/2017  Christopher White  v.  Troy Steele
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  16-2349
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Riley, Circuit Judge, and Schreier, 
   District Judge] 
   Prisoner case - Habeas. Even though the court had reason to doubt the 
   petition was filed within the applicable AEDPA statute of limitations, it 
   would consider the merits of White's claims in the interest of judicial 
   economy; the state did not violate Brady or Napue by failing to disclose 
   an agreement with a prosecution witness that did not exist; assuming 
   without deciding that financial assistance provided to the witness was 
   subject to disclosure under Brady, White was not entitled to habeas relief 
   as the failure to disclose the information did not undermine confidence in 
   the guilty verdict.
