Alan S. Lewis, a partner at Carter Ledyard & Milburn, writes that a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling is likely to be a boon for a not insignificant class of habeas petitioners who can show that the challenged state court decision seems to misapply the pertinent standard will receive de novo review under the habeas statute's "contrary to" prong, and consequently, will be more likely to prevail in their quest for a writ of habeas corpus.
