On appeal from the denial of a writ of habeas corpus, what issues will be considered?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Greenawalt v. Ricketts, 784 F.2d 1453 (9th Cir. 1986):

Greenawalt raised numerous issues on appeal from the denial of his petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Because we reverse and remand to enable the district court to apply Edwards v. Arizona, 451 U.S. 477, 101 S.Ct. 1880, 68 L.Ed.2d 378 (1981), to the facts of this case, we believe that to conserve judicial resources we should decline to reach the other issues.
