The Tenth Circuit handed me a huge win yesterday, in one of the cases I argued in May. The (truly excellent**) opinion is here. This is my first appellate win in several years that actually results in my client obtaining the writ of habeas corpus and having his conviction overturned.
I am thrilled!
*OK, it probably doesn't qualify as a streak, because I have lost a couple of cases recently. But still! 2006 has been a good year for the habeas docket!
**Biased? Me?
Congratulations!
I think it is a good opinion, but I've forgotten most of what I learned about habeas corpus in law school 5 years ago.

You are a remarkable lady. I hope your 'streak' continues.
Good luck.
