Question Presented (AI Summary)

Will the Supreme Court continue to allow federal district and appellate courts to pervert the original intention of the summary judgement device and thus violate millions of Americans civil rights to a jury trial, pursuant to the Seventh Amendment

Question Presented (from Petition)

QUESTIONS PRESENTED Federal district and appellate courts have adopted an adjudication standard for employment discrimination cases that are informed only by their, documented, hostility towards employment discrimination Plaintiffs which, therefore, results in their biases in favor of employers, whether intended or not: Plaintiffs complaints are that the bias is deliberate and intentional. ; The contempt for employment discrimination Plaintiffs increases when the Plaintiff represent themselves as pro se litigants. Therefore, especially for pro se litigants, due to their hubristic and unwarranted hostility, federal district and appellate judges tend to see what they want to see; quote case precedents that do not apply directly to Plaintiffs’ cases; and interpret the McDonnell Douglas Burden-Shifting Framework NOT pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure guidelines but to their misguided and erroneously applied “inherent authority”. However, in doing so, district and appellate judges deprive thousands, if not millions, of Americans the rights guaranteed them through the Seventh Amendment of United States Constitution which is part of the Bill of Rights: A TRIAL BY JURY. Therefore, the questions presented to this Honorable Court are: 1) Will the Supreme Court continue to allow federal district and appellate : courts to pervert the original intention of the summary judgement device and ii . thus violate millions of Americans civil rights to a jury trial, pursuant to the Seventh Amendment. 2) Will the Supreme Court continue to allow federal district and appellate courts to routinely ignore presented facts regarding employment discrimination lawsuits on subjects of race and age, especially? 3) Will the Supreme Court continue to allow federal district and appellate courts to ignore the rules and guidelines of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and thus uphold the civil rights violation of an entire class of older Americans because it requires those judges to do the work and serve the American public as they are paid to do. iii _ PARTIES PETITIONER 1) Dr. Isaac Brunson Licensed and certified music teacher with experience teaching at secondary public schools and collegiate environments.
