MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Meza v. California, Case No.: 1:16-cv-01296-JLT (HC) (E.D. Cal. 2016):
petition for writ of habeas corpus must exhaust state judicial remedies. 28 U.S.C. 2254(b)(1). The exhaustion doctrine is based on comity to the state court and gives the state court the initial opportunity to correct the state's alleged constitutional deprivations. Coleman v. Thompson, 501 U.S. 722, 731 (1991).
