Question Presented (from Petition)

Whether, given that the district court's agreement that Mr. Mills was denied the opportunity to confront the forensic analyst in this case, did Mr. Mills meet the certificate of appealability standard articulated by this Court in Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484 (2000), and its progeny, "that reasonable jurists would find the district court's assessment of the constitutional claims debatable or wrong."
