CHEN IS BACK! . .5 DEBATE TEAM RECAP . .. 5 INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITIES . 6 SAVE THE DATES . .. .7 NEWS AND EVENTS . .. .8 LOTT ABROAD This past semester and over winter break, two Lott students represented PPL in various parts of the world. Mason Myers, (‘20) and Ella Endorf (‘22) studied abroad and are sharing their experiences with the newsletter. We are so proud of their accomplishments and know that they will continue to represent the Lott Institute in their future endeavors! “Studying abroad for a semester in Melbourne, Australia was one of the most rewarding things I’ve done at Ole Miss. I was nervous about being so far from home but I grew as a person and was able to experience so much. I joined a sports club, traveled all over Australia and New Zealand, and made life long friends. I took some of the most interesting classes involving Australian foreign policy and Australian culture. Overall, my experience abroad challenged me and broadened my perspective of the world.” -- Mason Myers (‘20) “I spent a month in Salerno learning all about the rich culture and history of southern Italy. I took Italian classes and conversed exclusively in Italian with my host family. I walked on the lungomare, or seafront, on the way to class each morning and spent my afternoons at the beach or shopping. On the weekends, I traveled around the Campania region, visiting Naples, Pompeii, and Caserta -- known as the “Italian Versailles.” When I wasn’t studying or traveling, I explored Salerno. -

Petitioner, V
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. -
