"inadequate or ineffective " under §2255(e) when a federal appellate court makes
the primary criterion for authorizing a second §2255 petition the federal
prosecutor 's consent to it?
Whether a Circuit Court of Appeals requirement that a prisoner asking to file a
second §2255 petition must show a new rule of Constitutional law is sufficient to
provide relief exceeds the gatekeeping role Congress intended in §2255(h)(2)?
Question Presented (AI Summary)
