Questions presented
NO IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES PETITION FOR A WRIT OF CERTIORARI. Ngozika J. Nwaneri, MD - Petitioner - against - The George Washington University Hospital, Washington DC - Respondent. Case No.: 24-7173 (D.C. Cir.) STATEMENT OF ISSUES PRESENTED FOR REVIEW. Pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 10(c) Petitioner Ngozika J. Nwaneri respectfully prays that the Court issue a writ of Certiorari, to settle:
-
Whether the Court of Appeals erred in affirming the District Court's dismissal of Petitioner's claims as untimely, given the ongoing internal adjudication process at the Respondent’s hospital, which extended beyond the typically applicable statute of limitations, and the alleged equitable circumstances including the Respondent's continuous misconduct and concealment of facts.
-
Whether the Court of Appeals erred in finding that Petitioner's breach of contract and tortious interference claims first appeared in his amended complaint, despite arguments that these claims were present in the original complaint.
-
Whether the lower courts erred in their application of equitable tolling and equitable estoppel doctrines by not recognizing the Respondent's alleged manipulation of the internal adjudication process and failure to notify Petitioner of his EEOC rights, which purportedly prevented timely filing of administrative complaints and subsequent lawsuits.
-
Whether the lower courts erred in their rulings due to the obvious Pro se status of Petitioner prompting repeated disregard of the facts and due process by the courts. Petitioner, Ngozika J. Nwaneri respectfully requests that this Court review,
