opportunity to have his or her federal claims considered by this Court as does any other applicant.” Kyles v. Whitley, 498 U. S. 931 (1990) (Stevens, J., concurring in denial of application). This case, however, presents an extreme example of why this is so. The compressed schedule has denied state and federal courts the opportunity to review filings with adequate time for reflection, much less to review the record, or even to receive a full response from the State.* Indeed, it is doubtful that counsel has had a fair opportunity to discharge his professional obligations. Thus, the more prudent approach is to grant a stay and to have procedures follow in their proper course. Accordingly, I respectfully dissent.

  • The State, in response to petitioner’s federal habeas petition, said that

its “non-opposition” was based “on the recognition that additional time may be necessary in order for the Court to resolve the claims asserted by Clark,” and also because the State has had to prepare for several executions in the space of a week and “simply has not adequately digested the record in light of Clark’s claims, received only this morning.” Respondent’s Response to Petitioner’s Request for Stay of Execution 9–10.
