Whether the applications for certificates of appealability were
improperly denied when the issues presented plainly meet the
standards articulated by this Court, in Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473,

amended jury instruction that resulted in violent felony convictions
based on misdemeanor conduct, and (3) the prosecution's knowing use
of false testimony and deliberate omission of facts that conflict with the
testimony proffered.
