DISCUSSION

(1) newly discovered evidence that, if proven and viewed in light of the
evidence as a whole, would be sufficient to establish by clear and convincing
evidence that no reasonable factfinder would have found the movant guilty of
the offense; or
28 U.S.C. 2255.
Section 2244, in turn, provides that an application may be granted "only if [the
court of appeals] determines that the application makes a prima facie showing
that the application satisfies the requirements of this subsection." 28 U.S.C.
2244(b)(3)(C). Following other federal courts that have ruled on the issue, we
agree that the language "as provided in section 2244" incorporates the prima
facie standard into our consideration of successive habeas applications under
2255 and that the same standard applies to both state and federal successive
habeas applications. Bennett v. United States, 119 F.3d 468, 469 (7th Cir.1997).
