Question Presented (OCR Extract)

QUESTIONS PRESENTED 1. Is the Sixth Circuit’s application of plain error review under Fed. R. Crim. P. 52(b) in conflict with this Court’s decisions? 2. Have the courts of appeals erred in reconfiguring plain error under Fed. R. Crim. P. 52(b) to extend to the government when the history of the plain error doctrine and this Court’s decisions suggest it was only ever intended to protect defendants?
