In Re Angeliina L. Lawson
IFP petition
Certiorari denied · March 23, 2026
Question presented
- Whether this Court should issue a writ of mandamus (25-3158) to correct the Tenth Circuit's denial of emergency relief, where a pro se litigant proceeding in forma pauperis has been procedurally blocked from initiating service of process in a federal RICO and civil rights action due to indefinite pre-service screening by district judges with direct entanglement in the subject matter of the suit, and where that court also refused to reassign the case to a neutral panel despite uncontested evidence of judicial bias, ADA retaliation, and structural obstruction in violation of 28 U.S.C. §§ 292(b), 294, and 455.
