Question Presented (from Petition)
Whether this Court's decision in Holmes v. South Carolina, 547 U.S. 319 (2006), clearly establishes that a defendant's due process right to present evidence is violated by a state rule which arbitrarily excludes expert testimony on eyewitness identification merely because there is evidence of defendant's guilt apart from the eyewitness identification.
