Question Presented (from Petition)

Does the presumption of innocence and due process mean that if a judge will not read what a defendant in a criminal case submits to the court, or if the prosecution admits the Defendant is actually innocent that the judge must rule in favor of the Defendant?

Doesn't a defendant in a criminal case have the right to assistance of counsel?

How many times does a defendant have to win his case before it sticks?

Doesn't Mr. Verkler as a defendant in a criminal case have the right to appeal and attack a completely unconstitutional, illegal, baseless and unjust decision?

Does the U.S. Constitution allow a defendant in a criminal case can be subject to an infinite excessive amount in fines without court order, be denied an hearing or any due process or private property taken be taken for public use without just compensation?

Can USA or the court add to a defendant's sentence without a court proceeding?

Since USA breached the plea contract and refuses to remedy the breach that the Defendant may rescind the contract and withdraw the guilty plea?

Since when can the court make up any standard it wants to commit a crime against a person or make such a law against 1 person contrary to Supreme Law?

Doesn't a US citizen have any protection under the Constitution and Laws?

Is there anything that makes a plea involuntary?

Isn't it true that there is nothing in the U.S, Constitution or Federal Law that gives the government or anyone in the government authority to attempt or commit a crime, a tort, conspire or lie against an American?

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Does the presumption of innocence and due process mean that if a judge will not read what a defendant in a criminal case submits to the court, or if the prosecution admits the Defendant is actually innocent that the judge must rule in favor of the Defendant?
