Did the Second Circuit Court abuse its discretion, when it dismissed petitioner’s appeal disregarding extended time limitations for him to file a notice of appeal in the District Court, as a result of fraud upon the Court, committed by Northern New York District Court Judge David Hurd, when it ordered that the petitioner’s District Court notice of appeal was untimely filed and that the Court of Appeals, as a result, lacked jurisdiction to hear the appeal?
