Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, No. 21-2115 · judgment March 21, 2023

Question presented

Whether the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit manifestly departed from this Court’s precedent by holding that egregious and repetitive acts of forgery and fabrication of hospital records were mere excusable mistakes. II. Whether the U.S Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit departed from it’s own precedent and this Court’s Precedent, when it failed to apply the Mcdonnell Douglas Burden shifting Mechanism.
