MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Saffold v. Newland, 250 F.3d 1262 (9th Cir. 2001):
Because I disagree with the majority's interpretation of Nino v. Galaza, 183 F.3d 1003 (9th Cir. 1999), I must respectfully dissent from its application of the federal statute of limitations to state habeas relief and the court's judgment that the district court erred in denying the federal petition.
