D.Me.: Even a perjury claim about state court search testimony doesn’t get over Stone bar

2254 petitioner’s claim that the search and seizure testimony in state court was based on perjury still doesn’t get him over Stone v. Powell. Wilson v. Maine, 2021 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 44260 (D. Me. Mar. 10, 2021).

A § 1983 damages action can implicate Heck, but not always. This one does because it attempts to undermine the conviction. Hastings v. Brasel, 2021 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 45311 (W.D. Ark. Mar. 10, 2021).
