Question Presented (from Petition)

May a U.S. circuit concede its [dis]qualification to adjudicate matters naming the Petitioner; after the majority of its judges in regular active service so published in writing, then ardently refuse to transfer the action to another qualified circuit for impartial adjudication of civil-rights claims presented?

If the answer is to the negative, in that a circuit may not so act, should this Court exercise its supervisory authority to grant mandamus relief under the All Writs Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a); Rule 20 of the Rules of the U.S. Supreme Court; and Article III, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution?
