1Opinion of the Court
EASTERBROOK, Circuit Judge.
A prisoner seeking to wage a federal collateral attack on a criminal judgment normally must file the proceeding within one year of the judgment’s finality. 28 U.S.C. §§ 2244(d), 2255 ¶6. Several provisions allow extra time. This case presents a question about one of these, § 2244(d)(2), which provides:
The time during which a properly filed application for State post-conviction or other collateral review with respect to the pertinent judgment or claim is pending shall not be counted toward any period of limitation under this subsection.
