Also Ruling in Habeas Petition from Conviction for Assaulting Federal Official

In Bierenbaum v. Graham, No. 08-1375, the court of appeals affirmed the denial of petitioner’s habeas petition in a murder prosecution, holding that 1) it was not unreasonable for the Appellate Division to conclude that the reliability of the victim’s statements was “amply supported” for hearsay purposes; and 2) there was no reasonable probability that the outcome of the trial would have been different absent defense counsel’s alleged errors.
