Question Presented (from Petition)
Whether the state court applied Chapman v. California, 386 U.S. 18 (1967) in an objectively unreasonable manner or made an unreasonable determination of facts when it found Harloff's absence from a critical part of his trial to be harmless error despite the key witness --Harloff's ex-girlfriend whom he was charged with assaulting-- admitting she testified differently because of Harloff's absence from the courtroom.
