BALDOCK, Senior Circuit Judge.
The question in this appeal is whether the Government’s suppression of impeachment evidence violated Petitioner Kenneth Conley’s right to due process under the Fifth Amendment.1 See Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83, 87, 83 S.Ct. 1194, 10 L.Ed.2d 215 (1963). The district court answered yes and granted Petitioner’s motion to set aside his conviction. See 28 U.S.C. § 2255. We have jurisdiction, id. § 2253(a), and affirm.
