Certiorari denied · November 17, 2025
Pre-decision estimate: 1% cert probability

Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate, with no standout signals pointing toward a grant.

Questions presented

  1. Did corruption within the NJ judiciary violate the petitioner-plaintiff’s constitutional rights?

  2. Why was the Appellate team switched to all individuals who were Alma Maters with NJ Superior Court Judge Robert H. Gardner (his decision was on appeal), from the Part D team, consisting of all former victims’ advocates, with no common thread to Judge Gardner (Greta Gooden-Brown, Stephanie Ann Mitterhoff and Michael J. Haas) to serve the interest of Judge Gardner, over that of the petitioner plaintiff?
