It's unlikely he's ever decided any. Those are almost always state law cases The Velveteen Ocelot Oct 2018 #1

Figured there might me some criminal appeals, kinda ignored the whole federal thing. Nevilledog Oct 2018 #2

After I read your post I had a big duh moment. Guess it would still be interesting how he handled Federal criminal appeals. I have a sneaking suspicion he doesn't like "criminals".
