from statements made it defied different individuals at different times in different circumstances means that there is no relation back here this is demonstrably wrong in a case issued by the supreme court at the very end of the term that was filed after the respondents brief was filed in this case chavez versus martinez the court very clearly held that the right against self incrimination is a trial right the police apparently in this country can coerce you as much as they want to get you to incriminate yourself so says so say five justices of the united states supreme court that is not a constitutional violation un happened not with different individuals with the same individuals the prosecutor who introduced the evidence the judge to allow the evidence to come in and mr jacoby used to probably felix's lawyer who objected to both of those statements those are the same individuals it didn't happen at separate times it didn't happen four months apart that's when the statements were made the constitutional violation happened at the same time during this trial and there were no different circumstances there were the  circumstances the prosecutor offering evidence in its in its case against the defendant in violation of the constitution permitted by the trial court and objected to by the defendant your argument makes different because of the fact that the trial has already occurred this is not a typical civil case in the sense that parties are framing the issues in advance for an upcoming trial and as the trial  civil case we look at issues like whether or not adding a new claim or defense will surprise the other side to its prejudice and it won't be able to effectively meet that claim or defense at trial here the issue is you know  first of all there's only one judgment that you're allowed to challenge in a hay vs action so if there are other state court judgments that want that the dependence trying to add in he can't do that those will be excluded that's not not responsive to my question because it seems to me that this is a different animal it's not your typical civil case that that's the concern i'm having maybe it's different than the run of the mill pre trial rule fifty motion and where there were a party of six to amend its complaint to add a new cause of action no doubt it's different your honor but i'm what i'm trying to get at is how is it different and it's different in one way in because because the occurrence that you're challenging is the judgment ok and if you have a simple just commitment for example you couldn't  on the movements part so there are numerous ways to address those concerns and that's what the holding of this court was and for versus hubbard and that's where it talks about that's a fifteen any issue not fifteen or so i suppose two the two issues that you want to raise here let's suppose that the first claim raised simply the confrontation clause issue that that i was unfair i didn't get an opportunity to effectively confront this witness and then a year and a half later comes the issue well there's also a fifth amendment concern here and that is that that the statement that i gave to the police was unfairly admitted against me it does seem that if the if the test is as broad as you urge that there would be no limit to when those claims could be asserted because you would say well they all arise out of the same trial and they were all part of the evidence say two and a half years that they can petition or would be permitted to add additional twenty even if it was well beyond the one year statute of them is subject to rule fifteen a and subject rule fifteen c they have to rise have the same kind of transaction occurrence so that civil commitments jail and prison conditions those don't arise from the judgment parole denials sentence credits miscalculation sentence credits all those maybe that's a level that the court wants to draw the line at but we're even further than that it's not just errors that go to the conviction in our case it is a very discre occurrence but we're talking about prosecutors submission of evidence in the in the trial before the jury that is in violation of the constitution of the trial court allows over the defendant's objections is this is this question of first impression  very familiar with the procedures that you're talking about the timetables that you're talking about that that is a very instructive case and he makes that point what do we do with i'm not sure you do capital litigation  does that happen often in capital cases your honor i don't practice in capital cases so i can't honestly answer that but i do know they're a part of our office is one floor above us and those people burn the midnight oil and i would be very surprised if after four or five months of investigation and make they scour the country for looking for mitigation evidence would surprise me greatly if they didn't amend the petition to include claims that were not raised by be the origin of these notions in craig craft the amended claim that was sought to be added was that ineffective assistance of counsel for failure to file a notice of appeal and put no three on page four and did not raise it as an independent ground of relief so this is fact based pleading we're told and he because he mentions the fact in his original petition the court refuse says you can change theories of relief in the kernel oil case we pointed out that there were contract and fraud claims that were amended three years after the original pleading the original pleading only alleged violation of federal regulations so of course there were different facts that were put in the amended pleading you have to clean up the contract has nothing to do with the federal regulation you have to plead out there for fraud violation there's nothing about c enter into better regulation requirements for that so obviously new facts were entered by the amended complaint but the question is is there a core of operative facts that are similar and if there are  've got to raise the claim to exhausted and a different claim coming out of the same conviction is not exhausted but that's that's that's clearly how exhaustion works but is now fifteen so you should work because it doesn't say claim it says what i want to do is get back to why don't you have that other correlation with civil cases there isn't judge easterbrook you analyse he looks at other transactions and so on for example you could have a transaction in the civil case where there is a fifteen to see to and allowing relation back to avoid the statute is concerned with is fair notice fernhurst of the family and that he in fact is going to have to defend something now why do we not why do we have a fair notice problem and helias when we seek to extend expand the petition beyond the claim that was originally in the first question why is there not fair notice to the defendant that this  a potential claim against the defendant simply because there has been an initial claim as to the connection and status you're saying that once that initial claim is made why doesn't have with that be true for ineffective assistance of now as well which would presumably be based upon actions that might be beyond the record of the trial i don't think it would your honor because because sometimes around reading back what i think the claims that were allowed to relate back in that case where the claims that were already stated so it was prevented from pursuing at the time exactly because i when he says  at this late date i don't know whether that's a discretionary refusal because you just raised it too late or whether there's some sort of the rule that you can't relate it to isn't that awful and couldn't be allowed and see well i'm not sure that's right louis fifteen works without assuming there's been an answer and therefore you need the courts for a mission and that's the only time you need the permission t going on to say to the plaintiff you are too late dollar and a dollar short and a day late i will not allow you to amend and that's within the district court's discretion and i think the rule is properly written because it's hard to formulate a general rule that few days after final decision had been entere around some language and for versus covered in order to rule in your favor one would have to explain it your honor and i think that the same thing the judge can be said about rodriguez applies here that was a fifteen and it simply held that three years an amendment three issue there it doesn't apply in this case however because the i c claims soley against college counsel for failing now raising it was actually raised very early on this thing about notices is a red herring so the third point is that there is a reason why fifteen a liberally to be liberally construed by the courts prefer decisions on the merits instead of technicalities and cleanings and i would hope that this court w california state prison is made of a complicated and interesting case and we thank you both we are able arguments
