Per Curiam 

In its brief in opposition, the State argues that Corcoran’s 
claims  were  waived,  and  that  they  were  in  any  event  frivo­
lous,  so  that  a  remand  would  be  wasteful.  Brief  in  Opposi­
tion  9–10.  Nothing  in  the  Seventh  Circuit’s  opinion,  how­
ever,  suggests  that  this  was  the  basis  for  that  court’s  order 
that the writ be denied. 

The petition for certiorari and the motion for leave to pro­
ceed  in  forma  pauperis  are  granted.  The  judgment  of  the 
Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit is vacated, and the 
case  is  remanded  for  further  proceedings  consistent  with 
this opinion. 

It is so ordered.
