Worldly Dieago Holstick v. United States

Whether the lower courts violated this Court’s precedent in Miller-El v. Cockrell, 537 U.S. 322 (2003), by collapsing the certificate-ofappealability threshold inquiry into a merits determination and denying review of substantial constitutional claims where reasonable jurists could debate (1) whether trial counsel’s misrepresentations rendered Petitioner’s plea unknowing and involuntary, and (2) whether counsel’s failure to explain the Sentencing Guidelines and “relevant-conduct” principles constituted ineffective assistance under Strickland v. Washing-ton, 466 U.S. 668 (1984).
