Certiorari denied · October 6, 2025

Questions presented

For the disqualification of justice, judge, or magistrate judge, 28 U.S.C. § 455(b)(4) states in part as follows: "...(b) He shall also disqualify himself in the following circumstances: (4) He knows that he, individually or as a fiduciary, or his spouse or minor child residing in his household, has a financial interest in the subject matter in controversy or in a party to the proceeding, or any other interest that could be substantially affected by the outcome of the proceeding..." 28 U.S.C. § 455(b)(4). The questions presented are:

  1. Whether the District Court in Kansas denied pro se Plaintiff due process when it declined to file Plaintiff’s Rule 60(b)(6) motion requesting the Court to vacate all the orders issued by District Judge Holly L. Teeter because Judge Teeter violated 28 U.S.C. § 455(b)(4); by receiving a "gift" of Garmin stock, by owning Garmin stock, and by profiting from the Garmin stock while she was presiding over the Jaiyeola v. Garmin International, Inc., No. 2:20-cv-2068 (D. Kan. 2020) lawsuit.

  2. Whether the District Court in Kansas abused its discretion with prejudice when it declined to file Petitioner's Rule 60(b)(6) motion.
