Question Presented (from Petition)

Can a party to civil litigation in the United States —no matter who the party is—commit crimes in order to win its case, all the while have judges at every level similarly violate federal criminal law (and rules of procedure, judicial canons, and the U.S. Constitution) in order to assist the party to win its case —or in other words, should criminal activity inside or outside the court prevent a case from going through the court?

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Can a party to civil litigation commit crimes to win its case while judges violate laws to assist the party?
