Question presented

QUESTION #1: Does a state Court Judge, commit a violation of a Defendants 14th Amendment rights to the United States Constitution for Due process, and equal protection of the law, when they deny them equitable tolling under an Ohio statute, due to an erroneous mischaracterization of a motion to reconsider? QUESTION #2: When it comes to the question of 11th Amendment Immunity for a state, and Judicial immunity for violation of a Defendants 14th Amendment rights to the United States Constitution for Due process, and equal protection of the law; Is it an administrative act, or a judicial act by a State Court judge, when a statute from state legislature commands that an act shall be done if elements are met? QUESTION #3: When it comes to the question of 11th Amendment Immunity for a state, and Judicial immunity for violation of a Defendants 14th Amendment rights to the United States Constitution for Due process, and equal protection of the law; are there acts commanded by state legislature, that compel judges to do an act, in a way, where there is no discretionary conduct applicable?
