Question Presented (from Petition)

When state court officers knowingly misrepresented material facts to the court and jurors about the case that were fabricated by the stress expert witness to procure a conviction that resulted in an accused of his Fifth Amendment constitutional right to due process and the appellate court had entered a final decision to affirm such conviction, does the Supreme Court have jurisdiction to review of a 60(b)(6) motion to vacate from the final judgment in a state court of last resort?

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether the Mississippi Supreme Court and the Mississippi Court of Appeals erred in denying Christopher Wilson's motion to vacate his conviction and sentence based on the State's knowing misrepresentation of material facts about the case and the use of a fabricated stress expert witness testimony that violated his 5th Amendment due process rights
