Question Presented (OCR Extract)

QUESTIONS PRESENTED FOR REVIEW 1) Did the lower Court err, and concomitantly violate the United States Constitution, Amendments V and VI, where it determined that Petitioner’s prior convictions for violating 18 U.S.C. § 924 c were in furtherance of a drug trafficking offense, where the Judgment and Commitment listed the offenses for carry or use of a Firearm During a Crime of Violence, where the sentence transcripts are silent as to the nature of the conviction, where the Seventh Circuit granted Petitioner to proceed by way of Second or Successive 28 U.S.C. § 2255 under this exact claim, and where Petitioner had, on direct appeal, questioned the validity of such sentence enhancement for committing a ‘crime of violence’?
