Ronald Anthony Beasley, II v. United States
Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, No. 24-10506 · judgment December 2, 2025
Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate, with no standout signals pointing toward a grant.
Question presented
Whether Mr. Beasley was deprived of his fundamental constitutional rights under the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, the Compulsory Process, and the Confrontational Clauses of the Sixth Amendment of an opportunity to present a complete defense, when the Government refused to immunize a crucial witness that it had no intent to prosecute, thereby improperly depriving Mr. Beasley of the crucial testimony. Whether the admission of irrelevant and prejudicial evidence of an uncharged count was so egregious as to render Mr. Beasley’s trial fundamentally unfair.
