Taramatie Persaud v. United States

Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, No. 16-4212 · judgment March 20, 2018

Certiorari denied · October 1, 2018
Pre-decision estimate: 5% cert probability

Before the decision, modestly above the 4.1% base rate. The model weighted this up for a Second Circuit decision below, a circuit split argued in the petition, and a petition filed soon after the judgment below.

Question presented

Whether the Court of Appeals incorrectly applied the plain error standard when it reviewed the district court’s failure to confirm defendant’s plea of guilty was knowing and voluntary only after advising her of her rights.
