1Opinion of the Court
COFFEY, Circuit Judge.
Respondent-appellant, G. Michael Brog-lin, Superintendent of the Westville (Indiana) Correctional Center appeals from the district court’s grant of a writ of habe-as corpus to petitioner-appellee, James A. Burgin, under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Burgin’s failure to bring evidence relevant to the existence of an alleged plea agreement between the State and his accomplice, Marlene Beitler, to the attention of the state court during his direct appeal effectively waived his right to challenge the state court’s rulings in a federal habeas proceeding based on this evidence. We reverse.
