Description

Following a jury trial, California state prisoner Michael Wayne Riggs (Riggs) filed a habeas petition seeking to set aside his conviction on the basis that he was denied effective assistance of counsel during the plea bargaining stage of his criminal prosecution. The district court ruled that Riggs attorneys failure to inform him that Californias "three strikes" law might apply to his case constituted ineffective assistance of counsel. The district court vacated Riggs conviction and sentence and ordered the parties to return to the pre-error negotiating stage. The court declined Riggs request that the court order the government to resurrect its original plea offer. Because the remedy fashioned by the district court was within its discretionary bounds, we AFFIRM.
