Question presented

On May 20, 2021, President Joe Biden signed into law the COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act. The petitioner is an Asian American woman, a victim of hate crimes and hate incidents. The district court had jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1331, as her case presented federal questions. Pursuant to FRCP 12b(l), 12b(2), and 12b(6), the District Court granted 50 of 55 defendants' motions to dismiss, with discovery stay. She filed a timely appeal, the circuit court sua sponte dismissed the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. The question presented: Whether it is Unconstitutional, has so far departed from the accepted and usual course of judicial proceedings and has conducted an anti-Asian hate incident when a federal court unlawfully dismissed a civil right case by a victim of hate crimes and incidents.
