ORDER

Motion, No 34, denied. Nothing in Russell's new paper warrants relief from the Judgment. The Court will, however, add one further supplement to its 15 June 2018 Order: to the extent Russell claimed that his trial lawyer was ineffective for not preserving the sufficiency argument, that claim fails. No 1-1 at 35-40. The Arkansas Supreme Court's resolution of that claim wasn't contrary to, or an unreasonable application of, clearly established federal law. No 11-6 at 8. And because reasonable jurists wouldn't disagree about that point, the claim doesn't warrant a certificate of appealability. Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 483-84 (2000).

So Ordered.
