John Won v. United States
Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, No. 22-2716 · judgment February 28, 2024
Before the decision, about 4.6× the 4.1% base rate. The model weighted this up for counsel who has won certiorari before, a Second Circuit decision below, and a circuit split argued in the petition.
Question presented
Whether the Confrontation Clause contains an exception that permits the government to present testimony at a criminal trial by two-way video so long as “exceptional circumstances” are present and admitting such testimony would serve the “interest of justice.”
