In Texas, death row inmate Charles Flores has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to permit an appeal challenging the use of testimony from a witness who was hypnotized.

The case involves legal scrutiny of whether hypnotically refreshed testimony should be admissible in court, a matter contested by Flores's defense. This dispute raises questions about the reliability of such evidence and the fairness of the original trial proceedings in Dallas County, Texas.

The Supreme Court's decision on allowing this appeal will determine the procedural path forward for Flores's case.
