J  2  In Stone v. Powell, 428 U.S. 465 (1976), we held that when a State has given a full and fair chance to litigate a Fourth Amendment claim, federal habeas review is not available to a state prisoner alleging that his conviction rests on evidence obtained through an unconstitutional  J search or seizure. Today we hold that Stone's restriction  J on the exercise of federal habeas jurisdiction does not extend to a state prisoner's claim that his conviction rests on statements obtained in violation of the safeguards  JP mandated by Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 (1966).  : H1 8I؃  C  Police officers in Romulus, Michigan learned that respondent, Robert Allen Williams, Jr., might have information about a double murder committed on April 6, 1985. On April 10, two officers called at Williams's house and asked him to the police station for questioning. Williams agreed to go. The officers searched Williams, but did not handcuff him, and they all drove to the station in an unmarked car. One officer, Sergeant David Early, later testified that Williams was not under arrest at this time, although a contemporaneous police report indicates that the officers arrested Williams at his resic! """## dence. App. 12a!13a, 24a!26a.  At the station, the officers questioned Williams about his knowledge of the crime. Although he first denied any involvement, he soon began to implicate himself, and the  J` officers continued their questioning, assuring Williams that their only concern was the identity of the shooter. After consulting each other, the officers decided not to  J advise Williams of his rights under Miranda v. Arizona,  J supra. See App. to Pet. for Cert. 48a. When Williams persisted in denying involvement, Sergeant Early reproved him: BQ pd   , , (  You know everything that went down. You just don't want to talk about it. What it's gonna amount to is you can talk about it now and give us the truth and we're gonna check it out and see if it fits or else we're simply gonna charge you and lock you up and you can just tell it to a defense attorney and let him  J try and prove differently. Ibid.  BQ d   ( , , The reproof apparently worked, for Williams then admitted he had furnished the murder weapon to the killer, who had called Williams after the crime and told him where he had discarded the weapon and other incriminating items. Williams maintained that he had not been present at the crime scene.  Only at this point, some 40 minutes after they began questioning him, did the officers advise Williams of his  J ԚMiranda rights. Williams waived those rights and during subsequent questioning made several more inculpatory statements. Despite his prior denial, Williams admitted that he had driven the murderer to and from the scene of the crime, had witnessed the murders, and had helped the murderer dispose of incriminating evidence. The officers interrogated Williams again on April 11 and April 12, and, on April 12, the State formally charged him with murder.  Before trial, Williams moved to suppress his responsesP"   to the interrogations, and the trial court suppressed the statements of April 11 and April 12 as the products of improper delay in arraignment under Michigan law. See App. to Pet. for Cert. 90a!91a. The court declined to suppress the statements of April 10, however, ruling that the police had given Williams a timely warning of his  J Miranda rights. Id., at 90a. A bench trial led to  J ԚWilliams's conviction on two counts each of firstdegree murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony and resulted in two concurrent life sentences. The Court of Appeals of Michigan affirmed the trial  JH court's ruling on the April 10 statements, People v.  J Williams, 171 Mich.App. 234, 429 N.W.2d 649 (1988), and the Supreme Court of Michigan denied leave to appeal, 432 Mich. 913, 440 N.W.2d 416 (1989). We  J denied the ensuing petition for writ of certiorari. Wil J liams v. Michigan, 493 U.S. 956 (1989).  JX  Williams then began this action pro se by petitioning for a writ of habeas corpus in the District Court, alleging a  J violation of his Miranda rights !  as the principal ground for relief. Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus in No. 90CV!70256, p.5 (ED Mich.). The District Court granted relief, finding that the police had placed Williams in  Jh custody for Miranda purposes when Sergeant Early had threatened to lock [him] up, and that the trial court should accordingly have excluded all statements Williams had made between that point and his receipt of the  J Miranda warnings. App. to Pet. for Cert. 49a!52a. The court also concluded, though neither Williams nor petitioner had addressed the issue, that Williams's statements  JP after receiving the Miranda warnings were involuntary under the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amend J ment and thus likewise subject to suppression. App. to Pet. for Cert. 52a!71a. The court found that the totality of circumstances, including repeated promises of lenient treatment if he told the truth, had overborne Williams's"    J will.!h uBh ԍ   The District Court mistakenly believed that the trial court had allowed the introduction of the statements Williams had made on April 12, and its ruling consequently extended to those statements as well. App. to Pet. for Cert. 72a!75a. !  The Court of Appeals affirmed, 944 F.2d 284 (CA6 1991), holding the District Court correct in determining the police had subjected Williams to custodial interroga J` tion before giving him the requisite Miranda advice, and in finding the statements made after receiving the  J ԚMiranda warnings involuntary. Id., at 289!290. The Court of Appeals summarily rejected the argument that  J the rule in Stone v. Powell, 428 U.S. 465 (1976), should  J apply to bar habeas review of Williams's Miranda claim.  Jp 944 F. 2d, at 291. We granted certiorari to resolve the  JH significant issue thus presented. 503 U.S. !!! (1992).oH lh uB ԍ   XgEp| X  ,  Justice Scalia argues in effect that the rule in Stone v. Powell, 428 U.S. 465 (1976), should extend to all claims on federal habeas review.  uB See post, at 6. With respect, that reasoning goes beyond the question on which we granted certiorari, Pet. for Cert.1 ( where the premise of [a]  uBh Fifth Amendment ruling is a finding of a Miranda violation, where the  uB petitioner has had one full and fair opportunity to raise the Miranda claim in state court, should collateral review of the same claim on a habeas corpus petition be precluded?), and we see no good reason to address it in this case.  : H1 7II؃  J  C  We have made it clear that Stone's limitation on federal  J habeas relief was not jurisdictional in nature, h uB ԍ   XgEpXFrTitle 28 U.S.C.  ! 2254(a) provides: The Supreme Court, a Justice thereof, a circuit judge, or a district court shall entertain an application for a writ of habeas corpus in behalf of a person in custody pursuant to the judgment of a State court only on the ground that he is in custody in violation of the Constitution or laws or treaties of the United States. but rested on  J ! prudential concerns counseling against the application of the Fourth Amendment exclusionary rule on collateral  Js review. See Stone, supra, at 494!495, n.37; see also  JK Kuhlmann v. Wilson, 477 U.S. 436, 447 (1986) (opinionKn"   of Powell, J.) (discussing equitable principles underlying  J Stone); Kimmelman v. Morrison, 477 U.S. 365, 379, n.4  J (1986); Allen v. McCurry, 449 U.S. 90, 103 (1980) (Stone concerns the prudent exercise of federalcourt jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C.   ! 2254); cf. 28 U.S.C.  u! 2243 (court entertaining habeas petition shall dispose of the matter as law and justice require). We simply concluded in  J Stone that the costs of applying the exclusionary rule on collateral review outweighed any potential advantage to  J be gained by applying it there. Stone, supra, at 489!495.  Jp  We recognized that the exclusionary rule, held applica JH ble to the States in Mapp v. Ohio, 367 U.S. 643 (1961), is not a personal constitutional right; it fails to redress the injury to the privacy of the victim of the search or seizure at issue, for any `[r]eparation comes too late.' !   J Stone, supra, at 486 (quoting Linkletter v. Walker, 381 U.S. 618, 637 (1965)). The rule serves instead to deter future Fourth Amendment violations, and we reasoned that its application on collateral review would only  J marginally advance this interest in deterrence. Stone, 428 U.S., at 493. On the other side of the ledger, the costs of applying the exclusionary rule on habeas were comparatively great. We reasoned that doing so would not only exclude reliable evidence and divert attention from the central question of guilt, but would also intrude upon the public interest in  ! `(i) the most effective utilization of limited judicial resources, (ii) the necessity of finality in criminal trials, (iii) the minimization of friction between our federal and state systems of justice, and (iv) the maintenance of the constitutional balance upon which the  JP doctrine of federalism is founded.' !  Id., at 491, n.31  J( (quoting Schneckloth v. Bustamonte, 412 U.S. 218, 259 (1973) (Powell, J., concurring)).  Over the years, we have repeatedly declined to extend  J the rule in Stone beyond its original bounds. In Jackson  J v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307 (1979), for example, we denied  J` a request to apply Stone to bar habeas consideration of`"   a Fourteenth Amendment due process claim of insufficient evidence to support a state conviction. We stressed that the issue was central to the basic question of guilt or  J innocence, Jackson, 443 U.S., at 323, unlike a claim that a state court had received evidence in violation of the Fourth Amendment exclusionary rule, and we found that to review such a claim on habeas imposed no great  J burdens on the federal courts. Id., at 321!322.  J  After a like analysis, in Rose v. Mitchell, 443 U.S. 545  J (1979), we decided against extending Stone to foreclose habeas review of an equal protection claim of racial discrimination in selecting a state grandjury foreman. A charge that state adjudication had violated the direct command of the Fourteenth Amendment implicated the  J integrity of the judicial process, we reasoned, Rose, 443 U.S., at 563, and failed to raise the federalism concerns  J that had driven the Court in Stone. 443 U.S., at 562. Since federal courts had granted relief to state prisoners upon proof of forbidden discrimination for nearly a century, we concluded, confirmation that habeas corpus remains an appropriate vehicle by which federal courts are to exercise their Fourteenth Amendment responsibilities would not likely raise tensions between the state and  Jh federal judicial systems. Ibid.  J@  In a third instance, in Kimmelman v. Morrison, 477  J U.S. 365 (1986), we again declined to extend Stone, in that case to bar habeas review of certain claims of ineffective assistance of counsel under the Sixth Amendment. We explained that unlike the Fourth Amendment, which confers no trial right, the Sixth confers a fundamental right on criminal defendants, one that assures the fairness, and thus the legitimacy, of our adversary pro J cess. Kimmelman, 477 U.S., at 374. We observed that because a violation of the right would often go unremedied except on collateral review, restricting the litigation of some Sixth Amendment claims to trial and direct review would seriously interfere with an accused's right to`"    J effective representation. Id., at 378.  J  In this case, the argument for extending Stone again  J falls short.$%h uB ԍ   XgEpXFrWe have in the past declined to address the application of Stone in this  uB context. See, e. r g., Duckworth v. Eagan, 492 U.S. 195, 201, n.3 (1989);  uB Wainwright v. Sykes, 433 U.S. 72, 87, n.11 (1977).$ To understand why, a brief review of the  J derivation of the Miranda safeguards, and the purposes they were designed to serve, is in order.  The SelfIncrimination Clause of the Fifth Amendment guarantees that no person shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself. U.S.  J Const., Amdt. 5. In Bram v. United States, 168 U.S. 532 (1897), the Court held that the Clause barred the introduction in federal cases of involuntary confessions made in response to custodial interrogation. We did not recognize the Clause's applicability to state cases until 1964,  J however, see Malloy v. Hogan, 378 U.S. 1, and, over the  J course of 30 years, beginning with the decision in Brown  J v. Mississippi, 297 U.S. 278 (1936), we analyzed the admissibility of confessions in such cases as a question of due process under the Fourteenth Amendment. See Stone, The Miranda Doctrine in the Burger Court, 1977 S. Ct. Rev. 99, 101!102. Under this approach, we examined the totality of circumstances to determine whether a confession had been  T! `made freely, voluntarily and  J without compulsion or inducement of any sort.' n!  Haynes  Jh v. Washington, 373 U.S. 503, 513 (1963) (quoting Wilson  J@ v. United States, 162 U.S. 613, 623 (1896)); see also  J Schneckloth v. Bustamonte, supra, at 223!227 (discussing totalityofcircumstances approach). See generally 1 W.LaFave & J. Israel, Criminal Procedure  ! 6.2 (1984). Indeed, we continue to employ the totalityofcircumstances approach when addressing a claim that the introduction of an involuntary confession has violated due process.  J( E.g.,  O  Arizona v. Fulminante, 499 U.S. !!! (1991); Miller  J v. Fenton, 474 U.S. 104, 109!110 (1985)."  Ԍ J  In Malloy, we recognized that the Fourteenth Amendment incorporates the Fifth Amendment privilege against  J selfincrimination, and thereby opened Bram's doctrinal avenue for the analysis of state cases. So it was that two  J` years later we held in Miranda that the privilege extend J8 ed to state custodial interrogations. In Miranda, we spoke of the privilege as guaranteeing a person under interrogation the right `to remain silent unless he chooses to speak in the unfettered exercise of his own will,' !   J ԚMiranda, 384 U.S., at 460 (quoting Malloy, supra, at 8), and held that without proper safeguards the process of incustody interrogation ... contains inherently compelling pressures which work to undermine the individual's will to resist and to compel him to speak where he would not otherwise do so freely. 384 U.S., at 467. To counter  J these pressures we prescribed, absent other fully effective means, the nowfamiliar measures in aid of a defendant's Fifth Amendment privilege:  *BQ 0d  , , (  He must be warned prior to any questioning that he has the right to remain silent, that anything he says can be used against him in a court of law, that he has the right to the presence of an attorney, and that if he cannot afford an attorney one will be appointed for him prior to any questioning if he so desires. Opportunity to exercise these rights must be afforded to him throughout the interrogation. After such warnings have been given, and such opportunity afforded him, the individual may knowingly and intelligently waive these rights and agree to answer  J questions or make a statement. Id., at 479. T BQ d   ( , , Unless the prosecution can demonstrate the warnings and waiver as threshold matters, we held, it may not overcome an objection to the use at trial of statements obtained from the person in any ensuing custodial interrogation.  Jx See ibid.; cf. Oregon v. Hass, 420 U.S. 714, 721!723 (1975) (permitting use for impeachment purposes ofP"    J statements taken in violation of Miranda).  J  Petitioner, supported by the United States as amicus  J curiae, argues that Miranda's safeguards are not constitutional in character, but merely prophylactic, and that in consequence habeas review should not extend to a claim that a state conviction rests on statements obtained in the  J absence of those safeguards. Brief for Petitioner 91!93;  J Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 14!15. We accept petitioner's premise for purposes of this case, but not her conclusion.  Jp  The Miranda Court did of course caution that the Constitution requires no particular solution for the inherent compulsions of the interrogation process, and left it open to a State to meet its burden by adopting other procedures ... at least as effective in apprising accused  J persons of their rights. Miranda, 384 U.S., at 467. The Court indeed acknowledged that, in barring introduction of a statement obtained without the required warnings,  J0 Miranda might exclude a confession that we would not  J condemn as involuntary in traditional terms, id., at 457,  J and for this reason we have sometimes called the Miranda  J safeguards  prophylactic in nature. E.g., Duckworth v.  J Eagan, 492 U.S. 195, 203 (1989); Connecticut v. Barrett,  Jh 479 U.S. 523, 528 (1987); Oregon v. Elstad, 470 U.S.  J@ 298, 305 (1985); New York v. Quarles, 467 U.S. 649, 654  J (1984); see Michigan v. Tucker, 417 U.S. 433, 444 (1974)  J (Miranda Court recognized that these procedural safeguards were not themselves rights protected by the Constitution but were instead measures to insure that the right against compulsory selfincrimination was protected).  JP But cf. Quarles, supra, at 660 (opinion of O'Connor, J.)  J( (Miranda Court held unconstitutional, because inherently compelled, the admission of statements derived from incustody questioning not preceded by an explanation of the privilege against selfincrimination and the consequences  J of forgoing it). Calling the Miranda safeguards prophy J` lactic, however, is a far cry from putting Miranda on all` "    J fours with Mapp, or from rendering Miranda subject to  J Stone.  J  As we explained in Stone, the Mapp rule is not a personal constitutional right, but serves to deter future constitutional violations; although it mitigates the juridical consequences of invading the defendant's privacy, the exclusion of evidence at trial can do nothing to remedy the completed and wholly extrajudicial Fourth Amendment  J violation. Stone, 428 U.S., at 486. Nor can the Mapp rule be thought to enhance the soundness of the criminal process by improving the reliability of evidence introduced  JH at trial. Quite the contrary, as we explained in Stone, the  J evidence excluded under Mapp is typically reliable and often the most probative information bearing on the guilt or innocence of the defendant. 428 U.S., at 490.  J  Miranda differs from Mapp in both respects. Prophy J lactic though it may be, in protecting a defendant's Fifth  JX Amendment privilege against selfincrimination Miranda  J0 safeguards a fundamental trial right. United States v.  J VerdugoUrquidez, 494 U.S. 259, 264 (1990) (emphasis  J added); cf. Kimmelman, 477 U.S., at 377 (Stone does not bar habeas review of claim that the personal trial right to effective assistance of counsel has been violated). The  Jh privilege embodies principles of humanity and civil liberty, which had been secured in the mother country  J only after years of struggle, Bram, 168 U.S., at 544, and reflects  *BQ d  , , (  many of our fundamental values and most noble aspirations: ... our preference for an accusatorial rather than an inquisitorial system of criminal justice; our fear that selfincriminating statements will be elicited by inhumane treatment and abuses; our sense of fair play which dictates `a fair stateindividual balance by requiring the government to leave the individual alone until good cause is shown for disturbing him and by requiring the government in its contest with the individual to shoulder the entire "   load;' our respect for the inviolability of the human personality and of the right of each individual `to a private enclave where he may lead a private life;' our distrust of selfdeprecatory statements; and our realization that the privilege, while sometimes `a shelter to the guilty,' is often `a protection to the innocent.' {!   J Murphy v. Waterfront Comm'n of New York Harbor, 378 U.S. 52, 55 (1964) (citations omitted).Yj BQ d   ( , ,  Nor does the Fifth Amendment trial right protected  J by Miranda serve some value necessarily divorced from the correct ascertainment of guilt.  ! `[A] system of criminal law enforcement which comes to depend on the confession will, in the long run, be less reliable and more subject to abuses' than a system relying on indepen J4 dent investigation. Michigan v. Tucker, supra, at 448,  J n.23 (quoting Escobedo v. Illinois, 378 U.S. 478, 488!489 (1964)). By bracing against the possibility of unreliable statements in every instance of incustody interrogation,  J Miranda serves to guard against the use of unreliable  Jl statements at trial. Johnson v. New Jersey, 384 U.S.  JD 719, 730 (1966); see also Schneckloth, 412 U.S., at 240  J (Miranda Court made it clear that the basis for decision was the need to protect the fairness of the trial itself  );  J Halpern, Federal Habeas Corpus and the Mapp  J ԚExclusionary Rule After Stone v. Powell, 82 Colum. L.  J| Rev. 1, 40 (1982); cf. Rose v. Mitchell, 443 U.S. 545  JT (1979) (Stone does not bar habeas review of claim of racial discrimination in selection of grandjury foreman, as this claim goes to the integrity of the judicial process).  Finally, and most importantly, eliminating review of  J Miranda claims would not significantly benefit the federal courts in their exercise of habeas jurisdiction, or advance the cause of federalism in any substantial way. As one  J< amicus concedes, eliminating habeas review of Miranda issues would not prevent a state prisoner from simply  J converting his barred Miranda claim into a due process claim that his conviction rested on an involuntary confes "  Ԯ J sion. See Brief for United States as Amicus Curiae 17.  J Indeed, although counsel could provide us with no empirical basis for projecting the consequence of adopting petitioner's position, see Tr. of Oral Arg. 9!11, 19!21, it  J` seems reasonable to suppose that virtually all Miranda  J8 claims would simply be recast in this way.%8h uB ԍ   XgEp| X  ,  Justice O'Connor is confident that many such claims would be  uBW unjustified, see post, at 13, but that is beside the point. Justifiability is not much of a gatekeeper on habeas. H  If that is so, the federal courts would certainly not have  J heard the last of Miranda on collateral review. Under the due process approach, as we have already seen, courts look to the totality of circumstances to determine whether a confession was voluntary. Those potential circumstances include not only the crucial element of police coercion,  J Colorado v. Connelly, 479 U.S. 157, 167 (1986); the  J length of the interrogation, Ashcraft v. Tennessee, 322  J U.S. 143, 153!154 (1944); its location, see Reck v. Pate,  J 367 U.S. 433, 441 (1961); its continuity, Leyra v. Denno,  J 347 U.S. 556, 561 (1954); the defendant's maturity, Haley  JX v. Ohio, 332 U.S. 596, 599!601 (1948) (opinion of Doug J0 las, J.); education, Clewis v. Texas, 386 U.S. 707, 712  J (1967); physical condition, Greenwald v. Wisconsin, 390  J U.S. 519, 520!521 (1968) (per curiam); and mental  J health, Fikes v. Alabama, 352 U.S. 191, 196 (1957). They also include the failure of police to advise the defendant of his rights to remain silent and to have  J@ counsel present during custodial interrogation. Haynes v.  J Washington, 373 U.S. 503, 516!517 (1963); Brief for  J United States as Amicus Curiae 19, n.17; see also  J Schneckloth, supra, at 226 (discussing factors). We could  J lock the front door against Miranda, but not the back.  Jx  We thus fail to see how abdicating Miranda's brightline (or, at least, brighterline) rules in favor of an exhaustive totalityofcircumstances approach on habeas would do much of anything to lighten the burdens placed on busy "    J federal courts. See P. Bator, D.Meltzer, P.Mishkin, & D.Shapiro, Hart and Wechsler's The Federal Courts and the Federal System 188 (3d ed. 1988, Supp. 1992);  J ԚHalpern, supra, at 40; Schulhofer, Confessions and the  J` Court, 79 Mich. L. Rev. 865, 891 (1981); see also Quarles,  J8 467 U.S., at 664 (opinion of O'Connor, J.) (quoting Fare  J v. Michael C., 439 U.S. 1310, 1314 (1978) (Rehnquist,  J J., in chambers on application for stay)) (Miranda's  ! `core virtue' Q !  was  ! `afford[ing] police and courts clear guidance on the manner in which to conduct a custodial investigation'  ! ). We likewise fail to see how purporting to elimi JH nate Miranda issues from federal habeas would go very  J far to relieve such tensions as Miranda may now raise between the two judicial systems. Relegation of habeas petitioners to straight involuntariness claims would not likely reduce the amount of litigation, and each such claim would in any event present a legal question requiring an  JX  independent federal determination on habeas. Miller v.  J0 Fenton, 474 U.S., at 112.  One might argue that tension results between the two judicial systems whenever a federal habeas court over J turns a state conviction on finding that the state court let in a voluntary confession obtained by the police without  Jh the Miranda safeguards. And one would have to concede that this has occurred in the past, and doubtless will occur again. It is not reasonable, however, to expect such occurrences to be frequent enough to amount to a substan J tial cost of reviewing Miranda claims on habeas or to raise federalstate tensions to an appreciable degree. See Tr. of Oral Arg. 11, 21. We must remember in this  JP regard that Miranda came down some 27 years ago. In that time, law enforcement has grown in constitutional as well as technological sophistication, and there is little reason to believe that the police today are unable, or even  J generally unwilling, to satisfy Miranda's requirements.  J See Quarles, supra, at 663 (opinion of O'Connor, J.)  J` (quoting Rhode Island v. Innis, 446 U.S. 291, 304 (1980)` "   (Burger, C.J., concurring in judgment)) (  ! `meaning of  J Miranda has become reasonably clear and law enforcement practices have adjusted to its strictures' ! );  J ԚSchulhofer, Reconsidering Miranda, 54 U. Chi. L. Rev.  J` 435, 455!457 (1987).`h uB ԍ It should indeed come as no surprise that one of the submissions  uB arguing against the extension of Stone in this case comes to us from law enforcement organizations. See Brief for the Police Foundation et al. as  uB Amici Curiae.  X XgEp| X  ,  And if, finally, one should question the need for federal collateral review of requirements that merit such respect, the answer simply is that the respect is sustained in no small part by the existence of such review. It is the occasional abuse that the federal writ  J of habeas corpus stands ready to correct. Jackson, 443 U.S., at 322.  : H1 |7III؃  C  One final point should keep us only briefly. As he had done in his state appellate briefs, on habeas Williams raised only one claim going to the admissibility of his statements to the police: that the police had elicited those  J statements without satisfying the Miranda requirements.  Js See supra, at 3. In her answer, petitioner addressed only  JK that claim. See Brief in Support of Answer in No. 90CV!70256 DT, p. 3 (ED Mich.). The District Court, nonetheless, without an evidentiary hearing or even argument, went beyond the habeas petition and found the  J statements Williams made after receiving the Miranda warnings to be involuntary under due process criteria. Before the Court of Appeals, petitioner objected to the District Court's due process enquiry on the ground that  J  the habeas petition's reference to Miranda rights had given her insufficient notice to address a due process claim. Brief for RespondentAppellant in No. 90!2289, p. 6 (CA6). Petitioner pursues the objection here. See Pet.l"   for Cert. 1; Brief for Petitioner 14!15, n.2.  Williams effectively concedes that his habeas petition raised no involuntariness claim, but he argues that the matter was tried by the implied consent of the parties  J` under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15(b),&`h uB ԍ   XgEpXFrThe relevant part of Rule 15(b) provides: When issues not raised by the pleadings are tried by express or implied consent of the parties, they shall be treated in all respects as if they had been raised in the pleadings. Such amendment of the pleadings as may be necessary to cause them to conform to the evidence and to raise these issues may be made upon motion of any party at any time, even after judgment; but failure so to amend does not affect the result of the trial of these issues. See 28 U.S.C.   ! 2254 Rule 11 (application of Federal Rules of Civil Procedure to habeas petitions); 1 J. Liebman, Federal Habeas Corpus Practice and Procedure  i ! 17.2 (1988) (Rule 15 applies in habeas actions). and that petitioner can demonstrate no prejudice from the District Court's action. See Brief for Respondent 41!42, n.22. The record, however, reveals neither thought, word, nor deed of petitioner that could be taken as any sort of consent to the determination of an independent due  Jp process claim, and petitioner was manifestly prejudiced by the District Court's failure to afford her an opportunity  J to present evidence bearing on that claim's resolution. The District Court should not have addressed the  J Ԛinvoluntariness question in these circumstances.H h uB^ ԍ   XgEpXFr We need not address petitioner's arguments that Williams failed to exhaust the involuntariness claim in the state courts and that the District  uB Court applied a new rule under Teague v. Lane, 489 U.S. 288 (1989). Of course, we also express no opinion on the merits of the involuntariness claim.H  : H1 7IV؃  XC  The judgment of the Court of Appeals is affirmed in part and reversed in part, and the case is remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
