In Re Melba L. Ford

Paid petition


Certiorari denied · October 1, 2018
Pre-decision estimate: 0% cert probability

Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate: the model weighted this down for a self-represented petitioner.

Question presented

Since the United States failed to contest Petitioner's discovery and presentation of DoJ-supplied evidence that IRS repeatedly falsified digital and paper records to justify a forfeiture action against her, can a federal judge delay dismissing such action forthwith?
