SCOTUSblog has its recaps of the two habeas Supreme Court arguments from this week up here for Thompkins and here for Holland.
As for Holland, I like the recap's description of the "mood of the court":
The mood of the Court was perhaps best summarized by the Chief Justice, who commented during the state’s argument that it is very hard to argue against equitable tolling, but that there is also a need for a “constraining principle” so as not to “do away with” the statute of limitations entirely.
My discussion of the arguments is here.
