Description
This case concerns respondent John David Stumpf s conviction and death sentence for the murder of Mary Jane Stout. In adjudicating Stumpf s petition for a writ of habeas corpus, the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit granted him relief on two grounds: that his guilty plea was not knowing, voluntary, and intelligent, and that his conviction and sentence could not stand because the State, in a later trial of Stumpf s accomplice, pursued a theory of the case inconsistent with the theory it had advanced in Stumpf s case. We granted certiorari to review both holdings. 543 U. S. ___ (2005).
