Dieter Charles Vogt v. United States

Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, No. 18-13937 · judgment January 16, 2019

Certiorari denied · May 28, 2019
Pre-decision estimate: 4% cert probability

Before the decision, roughly the 4.1% base rate. The model weighted this up for an Eleventh Circuit decision below, counsel who has filed here before, and a petition filed soon after the judgment below.

Question presented

Should the order of the court of appeals denying a certificate of appealability be reversed and remanded, because it is manifestly incorrect to suggest that no reasonable jurist could disagree with a district court order summarily denying a motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255, where that order directly conflicts with the controlling decisions of this Court and the plain language of § 2255?
