| Feb 19 2020 | Petition for a writ of certiorari and motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis filed. (Response due March 27, 2020) | | Motion for Leave to Proceed in Forma PauperisPetitionProof of Service | | Mar 03 2020 | Waiver of right of respondent United States to respond filed. | | Main Document | | Mar 12 2020 | DISTRIBUTED for Conference of 3/27/2020. | | | | Mar 30 2020 | Petition DENIED. Justice Sotomayor, with whom Justice Ginsburg joins, dissenting from the denial of certiorari: I dissent for the reasons set out in Brown v. United States, 586 U. S. ___ (2018) (Sotomayor, J., dissenting). Recognizing that the Court has repeatedly declined to grant certiorari on this important issue—whether the right recognized in Johnson v. United States, 576 U. S. 591 (2015), applies to defendants sentenced under the mandatory Sentencing Guidelines—I will cease noting my dissent in future petitions presenting the question. I hope, however, that the Court will at some point reconsider its reluctance to answer it. | | |
