Question Presented (AI Summary)
Whether the trial court and the Fifth Circuit erred in finding the petitioner competent to stand trial, violating his due process rights
Question Presented (OCR Extract)
QUESTIONS PRESENTED 1. Because the trial court and the Fifth Circuit erred by finding Mr. Villanueva competent to stand trial, it violated his due process rights. 2. Because it is not one of the federal crimes enumerated by the constitution and further is beyond the scope of the Commerce Clause and further that it is unconstitutionally vague, the trial court and the Fifth Circuit erred by failing to declare unconstitutional the statute under which Mr. Villanueva was prosecuted. 2
