Masoud Bamdad v. United States
Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, No. 17-55798 · judgment August 3, 2017
Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate, with no standout signals pointing toward a grant.
Question presented
Should a habeas proceedings court adjudicate all claims of a habeas petitioner before making its final judgment and closing the case, or otherwise such judgment is invalid and does not end the action pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(b)? Does a defective indictment result in a court losing its jurisdiction over a criminal defendant? Whether due process demands government agents follow their own agency policy and procedures during their investigation stage. Where there is no evidence of interstate commerce violations in a case of a physician who was charged and convicted of distribution of controlled substances, while he was practicing legitimate pain management based on his licensing agency guidelines, do federal authorities have jurisdiction over such a case?
