Question(s) presentedi QUESTIONS PRESENTED

Our American Flag and The Uniform of America’s Police Officers are neutral and impartial visual symbols of blind-justice and equal protection under the law for all people in The United States of America. Never in American History has The Uniform of America’s Police Officers ever been officially desecrated with visible bias, and the last time that uniformed executive officers in America raised a flag against our American Flag, it resulted in the American Civil War.

In consideration of the Respondents’ recent and unprecedented desecration of The Uniform of America’s Police Officers with visible “Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual, Transgender, and Queer pride” speech and visible bias, preference, favoritism, prejudice, and segregationist intent; and the related implementation of segregated policing in America; specifically and only for and in favor of those who identify as “Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual, Transgender, and Queer” with the explicit exclusion of at least “hetero-sexuals” in particular; can the government deny the plain-text right to “the equal protection of the laws”, as is carried out and executed by the police at all times, seemingly in direct violation of the Fourteenth Amendment of The Constitution of The United States of America?

Can The Uniform of America’s Police Officers be misappropriated and used as a personal billboard and interactive “forum” for biased ideological and

Question(s) presenteda QUESTIONS PRESENTED

This Court has held for over a century that the Fourteenth Amendment protects the right of parents to control and direct the education of their children. But other than protecting the decision to choose private educational options for a child, the Court has not determined what it means to “direct” the education of one’s child. Importantly, this Court has yet to answer directly whether the right to educate one’s child is fulfilled by the choosing of a public or private school—a question over which the circuit courts are split. This case therefore presents two interconnected questions, including one involving a circuit split:

  1. Whether the fundamental constitutional right of parents to control their children’s education is limited to the right to select a school—as the court below held—or whether parents continue exercising that right even once they have chosen to send their child to a public school, as the Third Circuit has held.

  2. Whether there should be a more generalized clearly established requirement for government employees who have plenty of time to reflect on the constitutionality of their actions than the clearly established requirement that applies to cases involving law enforcement officers making split-second, life-or-death decisions.

  1. Whether the Federal Circuit improperly considered government developments that postdate a trademark applicant’s filing to support a refusal under Section 2(a) of the Lanham Act, despite the applicant’s statutory right to constructive use based on the application’s filing date.

  2. Whether the Federal Circuit improperly deferred to the USPTO’s statutory interpretation of Section 2(a) after this Court’s ruling in Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, which reaffirmed the judiciary’ duty to independently interpret the law under the Administrative Procedure Act.

  3. Whether Section 2(a)’s prohibition against marks that “falsely suggest a connection” is unconstitutionally vague as applied to an intent-to-use trademark application which the USPTO claims references a fictionalized entity that did not exist at the time of filing.

Question(s) presentedQUESTION PRESENTED

The Federal Aviation Administration Authorization Act of 1994 (FAAAA) preempts state laws related to mo- tor carrier and broker prices, routes, and services. 49 U.S.C. 14501(e)(1). Another provision—commonly known as the “safety exception”—preserves the “safety regula- tory authority of a State with respect to motor vehicles.” 49 U.S.C. 14501(c)(2)(A). The question presented is:

Whether a common-law negligence claim alleged against a freight broker, based on the broker’s selection of a motor carrier to provide transportation of cargo, is preempted because it does not fall within the safety ex- ception in Section 14501(¢)(2)(A).

Judgment: April 02, 2025

Daniel Evan Kirsch [Main Document] [Lower Court Orders/Opinions]
[Petition] [Appendix]
Question(s) presentedCAPITAL CASE QUESTION PRESENTED

This Court has recognized that “li]n the constitutional sense, trial by jury in a criminal case necessarily implies at the very least that the ‘evidence developed’ against a defendant shall come from the witness stand in a public courtroom where there is full judicial protection of the defendant’s right of confrontation, of cross- examination, and of counsel.” Turner v. Louisiana, 379 U.S. 466, 472-73 (1965). In Sam Fields’s federal habeas case, a panel of the Sixth Circuit found Gn unison with the Sixth Circuit’s prior decisions) that this Court’s general rule, as stated in Turner and other cases of this Court, qualified as clearly established federal law under 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d)(1) “AEDPA”). Accordingly, Fields was entitled to a determination of whether the state court’s decision in his case—regarding the jury’s consideration of physical evidence that did not come from the courtroom—was an unreasonable application of this general rule.

But during en banc review, a majority determined that this Court “abrogated” the prior Sixth Circuit decisions by subsequently interpreting § 2254(d)(1) to exclude general or abstract rules from qualifying as clearly established Supreme Court law. The majority further concluded that the rule was not a holding of Turner or any other Supreme Court case for the purposes of AEDPA. As a result, Fields no longer was entitled to a determination of whether the state-court decision unreasonably applied this Court’s rule.

This Court subsequently issued Andrew v. White, 145 S. Ct. 75, 78 (2025), in which this Court ruled that a similar circuit court decision finding that the general or abstract rule at issue there could not satisfy AEDPA’s “clearly established law” requirement was “wrong.” The Court ruled that § 2254(d)(1) does not exclude abstract or general principles from qualifying as clearly established law, and when this Court relies on a legal rule or principle to decide a case, that principle is a holding of this Court for purposes of AEDPA. This Court remanded the case to the circuit court for a determination of whether the state-court decision unreasonably applied this Court’s general rule.

Less than 30 days after this Court decided Andrew, Fields requested the Sixth Circuit to recall its mandate on the ground that Andrew created an exceptional circumstance warranting the recall. In a divided decision, the Sixth Circuit denied the motion. This case thus presents the following questions:

May a subsequent decision of this Court calling into question the correctness

and integrity of a circuit court’s judgment qualify as an exceptional

circumstance justifying a recall of the circuit court’s mandate, and if so, did

the lower court err in denying the motion to recall?

Stacy L. Conner [Main Document]
[Petition] [Appendix]
Question(s) presented\ . \ eS : wy ae) QUESTION(S) PRESENTED | Conner, readily admits that on the surface or upon first appearances his case may not have any huge global implications, but as a citizen feels strongly that our whole legal system is weaved into the fine fabric of our Constitution itself; and as such, is subject to becoming unraveled by the inadvertent pluc- . king or pulling of.but one loose fiber or string that might have a disastrous or unintended consequence on the entire moaic structure of every American Life. 1.) Does our Constitution no longer protect/serve and umbrella each American Citizen equally? or at all?? Conner, is almost willing to bet that even as diverse as the Supreme Court may seem to be, nowhere throughout the journals of its long lustrous career or history can you find the same perimeters that this case harbors. Conner's 2nd Question, is really the most Important. Ironically its the very same Question —~ that he has presented and asked not merely any number of times, but no less than a dozen attempts have been made in different courts on the foundation of this concise QUESTION alone (verbatim): 2.) "After assessing all the Facts and supporting evidence in correlation to precedent and the many statutory LAWS which govern the issue [in this Court's opinion] WAS Conner's Petition for Discretionary Review timely delivered; Yes or No?" This should be viewed as a ‘certified question’ of both Fact & Law in order to maintain uniformity with the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court. | (unquote). Not the lower district court nor did the 5th Circuit chodse to address this important question, which fulfills: the Continuous Harm Violation Doctrine. : 3.) Does the Supreme Court still believe thata single act of depriving a citizen of his Right to due process or access to court can very well trig- ger your judicial power to intervene? what if there's a distinct Liberty interest invested, or at stake? Does it Really Not Matter? ii :

Whether The opinion of the Eleventh Circuit court of Appeal is in conflict with a decision of the United States Supreme Court in the light of the decision rendered in | SHALALA v SCHAEFER 509 US 292, 125 L Kd 2d 239, 113 SCT 2625 (1993), which | this court erred finding “the notice of appeal was untimely”. 5.
