Supreme Court hears Texas habeas case Guerrero v. Johnson today

The Supreme Court's calendar lists Guerrero v. Johnson (No. 25-1003) for argument Wednesday, Nov. 4, with the Court convening at 10 a.m. SCOTUSblog says the case asks whether a claim relies on a new, previously unavailable constitutional rule when the habeas petitioner could have raised it in an earlier federal petition. Eric Guerrero, director of the Texas prison system's institutions division, is the petitioner, and the Solicitor General was granted time to argue as a friend of the Court.
