Leander Mann v. United States
Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, No. 21-1747 · judgment May 16, 2023
Certiorari denied · January 8, 2024
Pre-decision estimate: 10% cert probability (95% interval 7%–15%)
Before the decision, about 2.4× the 4.1% base rate. The model weighted this up for a circuit split argued in the petition, a dissent in the court below (flagged in the petition), and a Sixth Circuit decision below.
Question presented
- Whether equitable tolling stops the clock on the AEDPA statute of limitations during periods of extraordinary circumstances, as the Second and Eleventh Circuits have held, or whether AEDPA petitioners who face extraordinary circumstances may be required to file in far less than the one year granted to them by statute, as the Fifth, Sixth, and Ninth Circuits have held.
