U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 19-3639
U.S. District Court for the Western District of Arkansas - Ft. Smith
[PUBLISHED] [Stras, Author, with Gruender and Benton, Circuit Judges]
Prisoner case - Habeas. Hartman procedurally defaulted his
ineffective-assistance-of-trial-counsel claim; the procedural default in
the case occurred on appeal and not in the initial-review collateral
proceeding; in these circumstances, with no cause to excuse the procedural
default, the claim is barred.
