Question presented

If Marrese v. Am. Acad, of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 470 U.S. 373, 380 (1985) and/or 28 U.S.C. § 1738 are controlling, should the Federal Court recognize the cursory nature of facts shielding them from being barred by collateral estoppel under Dunn, (N.Y. 2015) and the liberal nature of New York Judiciary Law section 487 to permit a plenary action for attorney deceit under Marta Urias v. Daniel P. Buttafuoco, 18 (NY 2024)?
