Description

This appeal arises out of a petition for post-conviction review of a state-court conviction for first-degree murder and possession of an instrument of crime entered against Paul Satterfield in 1985. Appellee, Satterfield, was granted a writ of habeas corpus by Judge Jan E. DuBois of the Eastern District of Pennsylvania on the basis of ineffective assistance of counsel arising from trial counsels failure to call potentially exculpatory eye-witnesses at trial. Appellants Philip L. Johnson, the District Attorney for Philadelphia County, and the Attorney General of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania ("The Commonwealth"), challenge the District Courts ruling on ineffective assistance of counsel and also argue that Satterfields federal habeas petition should have been dismissed as time-barred under the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act ("AEDPA"). We agree that Satterfields petition is time-barred and reverse the judgment of the District Court.
