MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Fish v. Cardwell, 523 F.2d 976 (9th Cir. 1975):

The third and most difficult question was whether the verdict was supported by the evidence. It was not raised in the state proceedings. For this reason alone, petitioner's claim is not cognizable in this court. Lattimore v. Craven, 453 F.2d 1249 (9th Cir. 1972), Guillory v. Wilson,402 F.2d 34 (9th Cir. 1968).
