Question Presented (from Petition)
1. Whether Petitioner is entitled to relief on his claim that 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(3)(B) is unconstitutionally vague and therefore his conviction under 18 U.S.C. § 924(c) was obtained in violation of due process.
2. Whether the Eleventh Circuit erred by denying Petitioner a certificate of appealability when the issue was nonetheless being debated among jurists around the country -- and has since been resolved in Petitioner's favor in United States v. Davis, --- S. Ct. ---, 2019 WL 2570654 (U.S. June 24, 2019).
