982593P.pdf   11/19/1999  Robert Lingle  v.  State of Iowa et al.
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  98-2593
   Southern District of Iowa   
   Prisoner case - habeas. Prosecutor's failure to provide Lingle with 
   doctor's report indicating sexual abuse victim's hymen was intact 
   did not affect outcome of trial as penetration is not an element 
   of the offense of second degree sexual abuse under Iowa law, 
   and the report did not necessarily contradict the victim's testimony.
