Krishna Maharaj v. Ricky D. Dixon, Secretary, Florida Department of Corrections, et al.
Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, No. 20-14816 · judgment March 17, 2022
Before the decision, about 2.8× the 4.1% base rate. The model weighted this up for counsel who has won certiorari before, a circuit split argued in the petition, and an Eleventh Circuit decision below, and down for a state or local-government respondent.
Question presented
When a court of appeals authorizes adjudication of a claim in a second or successive habeas petition pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 2244(b)(3)(A), is the district court adjudicating the claim jurisdictionally barred from considering any evidence supporting the claim that the court of appeals has not specifically identified in its authorization order, as the court of appeals held in this case, or does the district court have the power to consider all evidence that bears directly on the authorized claim, as the Seventh Circuit has held?
