Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, No. 20-2408 · judgment April 16, 2021


Certiorari denied · June 14, 2021
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, though a petition filed soon after the judgment below counted the other way.

Question presented

PRIMARY QUESTION: Since both lower Courts ruled NO JURISDICTION over Treaties [Appendices A & C] - Will the Justices be bold to grant review, examine the wider implications of the fundamental TEXTUAL-faults in the USAJndia-DTAA Treaty[Appendix-D], and also - take the necessary action to get the TEXTUAL-faults of the DTAA fixed, since it takes at least 67 Senators to amend the Treaty? SECONDARY QUESTION: Since both lower Courts Ignored the Precedent Law and Dismissed the Inheritance tax case of Mary Estelle Curran[Appendix-E] - What recourse does the Refugee-Petitioner[Appendix-F] have to get the Full Refund of $229,568.99[Appendix-G], as a Fair Remedy for his InheritedIndia-Property tax case?
