“In general, ... a case announces a new rule when it breaks new ground or imposes a new obligation on the States or the Federal Government. To put it differently, a case announces a new rule if the result was not dictated by precedent existing at the time the defendant’s conviction became final.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“[o]ur analysis has been consistent with the approach the Second Circuit took in Corsentino.... As Schaflander and O'Mara make clear, we have not held that the failure to raise a claim, absent a rule requiring it to be raised or waived, constitutes a procedural default.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the concurrence“We do not create a new rule when we simply apply 'a rule of this general application,' Wright v. West, --- U.S. ----, ----, 112 S.Ct. 2482, 2499 (Kennedy, J., concurring), to a new set of facts.”
