                           SUMMARY**


                Habeas Corpus/Death Penalty

   The panel affirmed the district court’s dismissal of a Fed.
R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion as a second or successive petition.

    Petitioner filed a Rule 60(b) motion for relief, seeking to
reopen the district court’s previous denial of his original
28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas corpus petition challenging his
murder conviction and capital sentence. Petitioner contended
that he wished to bring a new but procedurally defaulted
claim (ineffective assistance of counsel in failing to present
mitigating evidence of the effect of childhood abuse on his
mental condition), and that the default was excused under
Martinez v. Ryan, 132 S. Ct. 1309 (2012). The panel held
that the district court properly denied the Rule 60(b) motion
because petitioner’s claim was essentially the same as the
claim he brought in his original petition.

    Judge Graber concurred in the majority opinion, but
would deny the Rule 60(b) motion for a second, independent
reason: that the law of the case doctrine applies.

    Dissenting, Judge Reinhardt would hold that the
allegation of petitioner’s mental illness at the time he
committed the offense constitutes a new ineffective assistance
claim that satisfies the standard for relief from judgment
under Rule 60(b).
