IFP petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, No. 25-2322 · judgment September 17, 2025
Question presented
Part I - Constitutional / Federal Questions Whether judicial immunity bars relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983>when a judge conducts a secret, off-the-record hearing, admits falsified evidence, and removes proceedings from the official record , thereby depriving a litigant of due process under the Fourteenth Amendment. Whether a private attorney who engages in joint, secret proceedings with a state judge and submits falsified evidence that is admitted by the court may be considered to have acted under color of state law” for purposes of liability under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Whether the Rooker-Feldman doctrine bars federal jurisdiction where the petitioner does not seek review of the merits of a state court divorce judgment, but instead raises an independent constitutional challenge to the fairness and integrity of the state judicial process. Part II - Fact-Based Questions Supported by Evidence (Q1-Q8) Were the altered and manipulated documents submitted by opposing counsel true and valid, or am I fabricating my claims? Did the trial judge refuse my motions twice when they raised clear allegations of fraud, or not? Did the trial judge accept the falsified documents and ignore my original, authentic documents, or not? Was there in fact a secret hearing between the trial judge and opposing counsel on June 27, 2025, to issue the alimony order without my knowledge or participation, and was this hearing later removed from the official record after I filed a complaint, in an effort to conceal judicial misconduct and corruption? Did the Appellate Division change or misstate the name of the judge in its records, or not? Do I not have the right to request reconsideration once such an error in the record is corrected? After I filed complaints against the trial judge for refusing my fraud motions, did that judge retaliate by issuing the June 27, 2025 judgment and were my motions for recusal and reconsideration then denied, or not? Was I denied access to Plaintiffs evidence (Exhibits 12-21) despite my formal request, and did the trial judge nevertheless admit those documents into evidence, in violation of my due process rights?
