II. Is a hearing where a judicial officer advocates for
a government agency by admitted otherwise
inadmissible evidence and by looking up or obtaining
evidence otherwise not introduced a violation of due
process?

III. Is it a denial of due process where a petitioner
has a right to judicial review under state law but the
highest court of that state refuses to review the matter
on the merit of the issue based on a mootness
determination admittedly caused by the action of the
government agency' action and in __ direct
contradiction of its own state precedent?
