    f p >\ n A I! Ul ' 20=1228 No. FILED JAN 2 1 2021 OFFICE OF THE CLERK SUPREME COURT. U.S. In The Supreme Court of the United States CHRIS JAYE, Petitioner, v. UNITED STATES ATTORNEY GENERAL WILLIAM BARR, ET. AL. Respondents. PETITION FOR A WRIT OF CERTIORARI On Petition for a Writ of Certiorari To the US Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit 20-3597 Chris Jaye Pro se PO Box 5015 Clinton, NJ 08809 [email protected] RECEIVED FEB - “i 2021 k.) QUESTIONS PRESENTED FOR REVIEW 1. Because rights are God-given to individuals, what legal authority did this Court have to impair the lights of the governed, specifically in exchange for so-called common law which benefits government actors? By what judicial authority via Article III does this Court have to impose its will on the people and the laws they want for their benefit (Article 1)? 2. Is it an unwritten policy in the Judiciary for federal judges to further this Court’s judicial immunity decree by depriving remedies in the law, e.g. 42 U.S. Code § 1983-1988 and the All Writs Act? If so, how does a citizen undo this policy or get the remedies in the law when the laws are being violated by federal judges? 3. What powers do federal judges have to act on or in furtherance of void orders? Can a federal judge deny voiding a void order? If so, how can a citizen free themselves from a void order (which is always void) if such cannot be done in the federal courts? 4.

Williams (Doc. 52).1 On May 12, 2020, plaintiff Chris Jaye sent the court a filing that was docketed as pro se correspondence. Doc. 46. Because Judge Williams perceived that filing to be a potential violation of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b), he directed Jaye to show cause why she should not be sanctioned. Doc. 52. Jaye his since filed a show cause response (Doc. 91). Numerous other motions remain pending. I. BACKGROUND AND PENDING MOTIONS On November 4, 2019, Jaye filed a pro se 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint and paid the filing fee. In that complaint, Jaye alleged that various state and federal actors, mostly judges or members of the legal professional, had violated her constitutional rights in a 1 Judge Williams was originally assigned to this case. However, plaintiff recently filed two separate lawsuits naming Judge Williams as a defendant. See Jaye v. Grewal et al., C21-0048- JCB-JDL (E.D. Texas 2021), Jaye v. Barr et al., C20-0321-WTM-CLR (S.D. Georgia 2020). Judge Williams has therefore recused himself from this case and it has been reassigned to me. Doc.191.
