Questions presented
-
Does the stare decisis authority of a court’s deci sion infringing on exclusive legislative power, permit that court’s decision to perpetuate and broadly apply that decision against Petitioner and all subsequent litigants?
-
Does stare decisis require a court to uncritically and broadly apply against Petitioner that prior deci sion that unmistakably infringes upon the separation of powers, and upon the contract rights, agency, and self-determination of our citizenry - thereby under mining the right of millions of Americans to choose what they are, or are not, willing to agree to within a contract?
-
At the core, should the broadly applied stare de cisis authority of the court be allowed to infringe on fundamental legislative power and thereby create a new class of contract law, a non-consensual contract?
