[Main Document] [Petition] [Certificate of Word Count] [Appendix] | Question(s) presented| 1 , QUESTIONS PRESENTED 1. Whether the Fourteenth Amendment’s Due | Process Clause permits judges who have recused, are disqualified, or have a disqualifying conflict of interest . . to control which judge will decide a case—by using | recusal, transfer, or other assignment mechanisms to select their successors—instead of allowing neutral statewide procedures to determine reassignment. , 2. Whether the Fourteenth Amendment's Due Process Clause permits state appellate courts to presume a lawful successor~-judge assignment and : : place on the litigant the burden to disprove it before , the very judge whose authority is challenged—even after a disqualified judge has engineered the assignment, the State’s records custodian has confirmed there is no statewide assignment order, and the same tribunal continues to decide this child’s case without any demonstrably neutral assignment on the | record? |

[Petition] [Certificate of Word Count] [Appendix] | Question(s) presented1 QUESTIONS PRESENTEDIn August 2024, after inheriting a large case- load from then-ascending Judge Maldonado, Judge Gettleman of the Northern Illinois District Court, after having no prior involvement, dismissed this case along with over half of the cases he inherited from Judge Maldonado. His dismissal, which, as he wrote, should’ve been a de novo review, largely parroted points from a magistrate’s report and recommendations. Judge Gettleman’s order contained hallucinated people, brand- new legal theories never before discussed, decisions based on precedent test outcomes instead of the logical tests themselves, logic that’s dependent on time travel existing, and decisions solidifying a witness as psychic; all of which are highly indicative of gener- ative AI. The Seventh Circuit, when reviewing the pleadings, opted to use a standard of deference in reviewing the case, and declined to rehear the case when the issues above were pointed out. The Questions Presented are:
without justification?

[Main Document] [Lower Court Orders/Opinions] [Written Request] [Petition] [Certificate of Word Count] | Question(s) presentedQUESTION PRESENTEDSection 208 of the Voting Rights Act provides that “lalny voter who requires assistance to vote by reason of blindness, disability, or inability to read or write may be given assistance by a person of the voter’s choice,” with certain specific enumerated exceptions. 52 U.S.C. § 10508. Texas passed a state statute that makes it a crime “to compensate another person for assisting voters” who vote by mail or to “solicit|], receive[], or accept|] compensation for” doing so. See Tex. Elec. Code § 86.0105. The Texas statute undisputedly makes it a crime for the staffers or compensated — volunteers of — social service organizations to assist voters with disabilities or voters who are unable to read or write proficiently in English who request their assistance to vote by mail. Does the Texas statute run afoul of Section 208? 1 |

[Main Document] [Petition] [Appendix] [Certificate of Word Count] | Question(s) presented1 QUESTIONS PRESENTEDRespondents challenged Washington state legislative district 15 (“LD-15”), alleging it diluted Hispanic votes under Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act (“VRA”’), 52 U.S.C. § 10301(b). Petitioners intervened to oppose the VRA claim and assert that LD-15 was a racial gerrymander. The district court ruled for Respondents, enjoined the Commission’s map, and adopted a new remedial map that reduced the Hispanic Citizen Voting Age Population (““HCVAP”) in LD-15 from 52.6% to 50.2%. The Ninth Circuit affirmed, holding that Petitioners lack standing to challenge the VRA ruling or assert their own Section 2 claim based on the remedial map’s dilution of Hispanic votes. It further held that one Petitioner had standing to challenge the remedial map as a racial gerrymander, but strict scrutiny was unnecessary because the remedial map was not “predominantly” based on race, even if race may have been “a” motivating factor. The questions presented are:
district and a legislator whose district is reconfigured by a court-drawn remedial map have standing to challenge that map or the underlying determination of VRA Section 2 hability that caused the remedial map to be drawn.
dilution 1s subject to strict scrutiny under the Equal Protection Clause when it is race conscious. |

[Main Document] [Motion for Leave to Proceed in Forma Pauperis] [Petition] [Appendix] | Question(s) presented. : 1 | I. QUESTIONS PRESENTED FOR REVIEW | Introduction: The case sub judice alleges that the defendant violated 18 |U.S.C. § 2250(a) by living a nomadic lifestyle of constant travel through multiple , states and counties. No instructions were presented to the jury to decide whether he violated any state sex offender registry law or established a “change of residence” | according to the ordinary-English-usage rule announced in Nichols v. United States, | 578 U.S. 104, 1868. Ct. 1113, 194 L. Ed. 2d 324 (2016). Instead, the trial court relied | on lengthy DOJ guidelines to conclude that his regular day-time commutes to one city and brief stays at campgrounds in multiple counties of West Virginia altogether constituted a violation of SORNA. Trial counsel failed to preserve errors. Question Presented: Did the lower courts commit plain error requiring summary reversal by reinterpreting the elements of 18 U.S.C. § 2250, (construed by the unanimous Supreme Court panel in Nichols v. United States, 578 US. 104, 18658. Ct. 1118, 194 L. Ed. 2d 324 (2016),) to thereby criminalize a law-abiding modus ~ operandi of never staying longer than state law allows unregistered visitors and moving on? , , Question Presented: Is the term “habitually lives” merely ambiguous in isolation, or subject to the rule of lenity, in any regard, because the Attorney General was not delegated specific authority to interpret 18 U.S.C. § 2250 in compliance with judicial , canons and lacked the expertise required to provide Skidmore deference post-Loper Bright? |

Allen Watkins | 3308 W. Saint Kateri Dr.
Phoenix, AZ 85041 |
[Motion for Leave to Proceed in Forma Pauperis] [Petition] [Appendix] | Question(s) presentedTo the Honorable the Chief Justice and the Associate Justices of the Supreme Court of the | United States: | Petitioner Allen Watkins respectfully petitions this Court for an extraordinary writ of mandamus and emergency relief under the authority of the Judiciary Act of 1789 (1 Stat. 81), the | Federal Arbitration Act (43 Stat. 883-885), and Rules 14, 20, 33, 34, and 39 of the Rules of this Court. Petitioner proceeds in forma pauperis and shows that irreparable harm is immediate and ongoing, including loss of livelihood, continued license suspensions, and the threat of homelessness affecting a dependent minor child. Because arbitration conclusively resolves the merits by design, FAA § 9 leaves courts with no adjudicatory role once the statutory predicates are met; confirmation is mandatory precisely because there is nothing left for a court to decide, a ministerial duty without discretion. The Rules Enabling Act, Act of June 19, 1934, ch. 651, 48 Stat. 1064, as amended by Pub. L. 100-702, Title IV, § 401(a), Nov. 19, 1988, 102 Stat. 4648 (codified at 28 U.S.C. § 2072(b)), forbids any rule of procedure from abridging this substantive , right Congress created. Petitioner therefore respectfully request expedited consideration and interim relief necessary to preserve rights conferred by the Acts of Congress and the Constitution : of the United States (see contemporaneously filed Emergency Application for Stay and Reinstatement of Licenses 25A622). QUESTIONS PRESENTED 1. Whether, under the Federal Arbitration Act of February 12, 1925, ch. 213, § 9, 43 Stat. 883, the clerk and judge of a United States District Court have a mandatory, ministerial duty to confirm an unvacated arbitration award and lack discretion to refuse docketing or to demand a civil-action fee contrary to that statute.

[Motion for Leave to Proceed in Forma Pauperis] [Petition] [Appendix] | Question(s) presented1 QUESTIONS PRESENTED 1.Based on his plea agreement’s boilerplate waiver of most appellate rights, the Fifth Circuit dismissed Petitioner’s challenge to his federal sentence. Was that wrong? Petitioner agreed to waive his appellate rights in exchange for the Government’s promises to dismiss an illegal reentry charge and to refrain from filing additional charges for conduct “underlying and related to” his plea of guilty. After the district court accepted his guilty plea, but before the court accepted the plea agreement, Petitioner learned that the State of Texas intended to pursue the attempted murder charges based on the very same conduct. Petitioner asked to withdraw from his guilty plea so that he could plead cuilty without any plea agreement. The district court denied that motion, and the Fifth Circuit affirmed. Did Petitioner show a “fair and just reason” to withdraw from the agreed plea? |

[Petition] [Motion for Leave to Proceed in Forma Pauperis] | Question(s) presentedQUESTIONS PRESENTED In New York State Rifle & Pistol Ass’n v. Bruen, 597 U.S. 1 (2022), this Court adopted a two-step text-and-history standard for analyzing whether laws regulating firearm possession violate the Second Amendment. Under Bruen, when the Second Amendment’s plain text covers an individual's conduct, the Constitution presumptively protects that conduct. The Government must then justify its regulation by demonstrating that it is consistent with the Nation’s historical tradition of firearm regulation. Jd. at17. Many lower courts, including the Fourth Circuit in this case, have concluded that the Bruen’s textual step one may be satisfied only where the protected conduct involves a firearm (1) that is not “dangerous and unusual” and (2) also “in common use for a lawful purpose.” The Fourth Circuit and others have separately concluded that Bruen’s textual step one may be satisfied only where “law abiding citizens” are engaged in the protected conduct. The three questions presented by this Petition are:

[Motion for Leave to Proceed in Forma Pauperis] [Petition] [Appendix] | Question(s) presented| 2 | SCOTUS rule 14 (a)-Questions for review-pp2-9 , 1. | filed with an IFP motion; the court found me indigent (including for counsel recruitment). | moved for service under FRCP 4(c)(3), but the district court refused despite granting IFP status, and the Seventh Circuit affirmed. Rule 4(c)(3) says the court “must” order service for IFP plaintiffs (contrasting with “may” for others). Does “must so order” in FRCP 4(c)(3) require a district | court to order service upon request by a plaintiff allowed to proceed in , forma pauperis? 2. The district court’s first order applied outdated Rule 23 text, deferred screening, and decided adequacy against me via a per se rule against pro se adequacy. | What followed was months of inquisition-like proceedings that departed from principles of party presentation, where | was denied tools routinely available to non-indigents (including without limitation access to discovery). Does the law | require that indigent persons not be legally disabled by the courts compared with non-indigents for litigating rule 23 issues or other | questions, in cases where their positions would survive screening? Is a imposing wealth based disparate access to discovery procedure error? |

[Motion for Leave to Proceed in Forma Pauperis] [Petition] [Appendix] | Question(s) presentedQUESTION PRESENTEDWhen a sentencing court considers imposing a term of supervised release, 18 U.S.C. § 85838(c) stipulates which factors the court may weigh, while U.S.S.G. § 5D1.1(c) provides guidance on applying supervised release to deportable aliens. Petitioner Otto Melvin Ramirez is a deportable alien who has been given a sentence which includes supervised release. The circuit courts are divided over the Question Presented, which is as follows: Whether a district court violated 18 U.S.C. § 3583(c) and U.S.8.G. § 5D1.1(c) by imposing a term of supervised release on a deportable defendant without making an individualized finding that such supervision is necessary. ia |

[Main Document] [Lower Court Orders/Opinions] [Motion for Leave to Proceed in Forma Pauperis] [Petition] [Appendix] | Question(s) presentedQUESTIONS PRESENTED I. Fourth Amendment: Warrant and Entry Defects 1. Whether the Fourth Amendment’s probable cause requirement is satisfied when a search warrant issues based on an affidavit lacking objective facts, and whether a district court’s refusal to address this constitutional challenge conflicts with this Court’s precedents requiring meaningful judicial review of Fourth Amendment claims, including Beck v. Ohio, 379 U.S. 89 (1964); Johnson v. United States, 333 U.S. 10 (1948); and Ybarra v. Illinois, 444 U.S. 85 (1979). 2. Whether the Fourth Amendment is violated when law enforcement officers gain entry to a residence by falsely representing to a property manager that they possessed a warrant when in fact no warrant had been applied for or issued, and subsequently obtain evidence before execution of any warrant, as substantiated by photographic timestamps, corroborating police dispatch logs, and sworn testimony; and whether due process is violated when the government falsely attributes the warrantless search to a “daylight savings setting” not found in the camera’s user manual, contradicted further by VeriPic’s metadata confirmation that the internal camera clock was accurate at the | | time of upload, and the district court refuses to conduct any legal analysis or fact-finding of this challenge. 3. Whether the Fourth Amendment and the Sixth Amendment . Confrontation Clause are violated when a warrant affidavit, and suppression-hearing testimony describe information from a , “reliable source,” even further supported by the police reports as a “reliable confidential source,” and the government later recharacterizes that source as an “anonymous tip” at trial, and the district court upholds the warrant without addressing the contradiction or affording the defendant an opportunity to confront or test the credibility of the source-even though the information attributed to that source never materialized and demonstrated unreliability-—contrary to this Court’s precedents in Illinois v. Gates, 462 U.S. 213 (1983); Florida v. J.L., 529 U.S. 266 (2000); Crawford v. Washington, 541 U.S. 36 (2004); and Napue v. Illinois, 360 U.S. 264 (1959). 9 |
