Question Presented (from Petition)

1. Whether a state court's denial of
meaningful appellate review, based on
the absence of a transcript that the court
itself suppressed or failed to provide,
violates a litigant's right to due process
under the Fourteenth Amendment.

2. Whether a pro se litigant who is also a
sworn federal law enforcement officer is
entitled to heightened judicial protection
when asserting claims of judicial
misconduct and suppression of
constitutional rights under color of law.

3. Whether a state appellate court may
affirm a lower court judgment while
knowingly excluding critical portions of
the trial record, thereby foreclosing
meaningful review and access to justice.

4. Whether a pattern of judicial actions that
obstruct access to the record, deny
motions for supplementation, and affirm
on incomplete records amounts to a
conspiracy to deprive constitutional
rights under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and 18 U.S.C.
§§ 241, 242.

Question Presented (AI Summary)
