Question Presented (from Petition)

1. Whether it is appropriate for a standard of deference to be applied when the reviewing opinion demonstrates a clear lack of familiarity with the case, and if it is, whether a Supreme Court precedent can be knowingly sidestepped and ignored by lower courts without justification?

2. Should the use of generative AI be used on the side of justice in the courts, and if so, what are the appropriate oversights, rules, and/or regulations that should be done to ensure justice is delivered by a human instead of an algorithm?

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether a standard of deference is appropriate when a reviewing opinion demonstrates a lack of familiarity with the case and potentially sidesteps Supreme Court precedent without justification
