Question Presented (from Petition)
1. Whether mandamus is warranted where the Ninth Circuit issued and allowed a
mandate to take effect under Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 41 based on
incorrect procedural assumptions, thereby foreclosing jurisdiction and preventing
any court from reviewing federal statutory claims.
2. Whether extraordinary relief is appropriate when the court of appeals refuses to
correct, recall, or clarify its mandate, leaving the petitioner without any adequate
alternative remedy.
3. Whether issuance of mandamus is necessary in aid of this Court's appellate
jurisdiction under the All Writs Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a), to restore lawful
jurisdiction so that federal claims may be heard.
