Scalia, J., dissenting
ception this Court has invoked to overcome inexcusable procedural default in cases decided by a jury "seeks to balance the societal interests in finality, comity, and conservation of scarce judicial resources with the individual interest in justice that arises in the extraordinary case." Schlup, 513 U. S., at 324. Since the balance struck there simply does not obtain in the guilty-plea context, today's decision is not a logical extension of Schlup, and it is a grave mistake. For these reasons, I respectfully dissent.
