Question Presented (from Petition)

Federal marijuana laws are constitutional because marijuana is not a
fundamental right. Judicial review of these criminal laws has been rational
basis, a political question. Petitioner is a political prisoner. Marijuana laws are
a political question because of ineffective assistance of officers of the court.

Whether "liberty " in the due process clause still means freedom from
physical restraint by government police power?

Whether the operation and effects of the marijuana laws are an
Article III case and controversy?

Whether being incarcerated is a substantial denial of Jody
Tremayne Wafer 's constitutional right of liberty without compelling
reasons for Congress to proscribe marijuana as a dangerous
substance, therefore without due process of law in violation of
Amendments IV and V of the Constitution of the United States and
is unconstitutional?

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether 'liberty' in the due process clause still means freedom from physical restraint by government police power?
