In Huntsville, Henry Dunn Jr. won a reprieve from the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans a day before he was scheduled to be put to death.
Dunn, 27, was sentenced to death for shooting 23-year-old Nicolas West in November 1993 in what authorities said was a gay-bashing hate crime.
He and his lawyers contended a previous state-appointed attorney was inexperienced, unqualified and incompetent.
