Irving F. Rounds, Jr. v. Department of Justice, et al.

Whether Petitioner was denied due process under the Fifth Amendment where the lower federal courts: I. Dismissed Petitioner's sworn claims of governmental retaliation and threats without affording any evidentiary hearing or opportunity to present witnesses, despite factual allegations that could not lawfully be resolved on the written record alone; IL Denied motions for recusal and reassignment without stating any basis, despite documented institutional connections between the presiding judges and the named federal defendants, creating an appearance of bias too high to be constitutionally tolerable under Caperton v. A.T. Massey Coal Co., 556 U.S. 868 (2009); and III. Affirmed dismissal by summary order and denied rehearing without providing any legal reasoning, leaving Petitioner unable to determine whether his constitutional claims were rejected on jurisdictional, procedural, or merits grounds, in violation of the due process principles reaffirmed in Noem v. Abrego Garcia, No. 24A949 (2025).
