Jones v. Davis, No. 18-99003 (8-12-21) (Friedland w/Bybee & Lee). On habeas, the 9th reverses the granting of a claim and remands for other claims. The 9th holds the conditioning of a petitioner’s testimony in the guilt phase of a capital case on psychiatric issues to a psychiatric evaluation is not error. It was reasonable under the circumstances.
