What is the standard for review on habeas corpus in the context of the prosecution's improper conduct?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Gardner v. Gomez, 38 F.3d 1218 (9th Cir. 1994):
The standard of review on habeas corpus is whether a prosecutor's improper conduct so infected the trial with unfairness as to make the resulting conviction a denial of due process. Darden v. Wainright, 477 U.S. 168, 181 (1986) (quotation omitted). We hold there was no denial of due process to warrant habeas relief to the petitioner.
