Stacey Bernard Martin v. City of Las Vegas, Nevada, et al.

IFP petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, No. 25-50216 · judgment November 26, 2025


Certiorari denied · June 29, 2026

Questions presented

  1. Did the Appellate Court, like the US District Court, omit to accept as true petitioner’s factual allegations alleged in his civil action that respondents - WITHOUT HAVING ANY JURISDICTION, initiated malicious prosecution against him, rendered judgment depriving him of all his parental rights by terminating them causing him immeasurable injury- fail to redress those allegations, causing a mischaracterization of the complaint resulting in dismissal by the court?

  2. Did the US Court of Appeals improperly dismiss petitioner’s Appeal reason being that he did not file a Notice of Appeal after he paid the $605 filing fee after filing his Notice of Appeal ?

  3. Is judicial immunity afforded to officials for bad acts they do in their personal capacity regardless how wrong those acts are?

  4. Did petitioner, Stacey Martin, present a prima facie case that respondents “Without having any jurisdiction, they initiated a malicious prosecution against him, rendered a judgment that deprived him of multiple constitutional rights (physical custody of child, malicious prosecution, equal protection of the law, judgment without jurisdiction, etc) causing him immeasurable injury?”

  5. Did petitioner properly serve all the respondents with his 42 Section 1983 Civil Rights Complaint and Summons? And did all the respondents receive a copy of the complaint?
