Job or Position Title:
Attorneys and Law Students Sought for Petition Team in Docketed U.S. Supreme Court Matter
Company or Organization:
U.S. Supreme Court Petition Team in Formation
Location:
United States
Salary Information:
Pro bono, public-interest, or extremely reduced-fee participation
An existing matter is docketed with the U.S. Supreme Court, and Justice Gorsuch has granted an extension setting October 23, 2026, as the petition deadline. The immediate need is for at least one attorney admitted to practice before the U.S. Supreme Court to serve as lead counsel, direct the legal strategy, finalize the constitutional questions presented, and make the final decisions regarding the selection and composition of the petition team. I am also seeking other attorneys and law students prepared to contribute to a small, collaborative team and gain unique firsthand experience developing a Supreme Court petition involving significant constitutional questions. The initial team must be identified and meaningful petition work must begin by approximately September 28 at the latest. Particular roles may be filled as qualified participants commit, so those with a serious interest are encouraged to respond without delay.
Please send inquiries, along with a brief description of your relevant background and interest, to SCOTUSDocket1st.14thAmendments@gmail.com. To protect the privacy of everyone involved, additional case details will be shared only after mutual confirmation of identity and relevant professional or academic affiliation.
This effort is grounded in three ideas: justice, contribution, and achievement. It offers an opportunity to pursue justice for my children and other families, for each participant to make a focused and meaningful contribution, and for the team to undertake the careful preparation and filing of a consequential Supreme Court petition. In my career, I worked on joint missions involving the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, civilians, government personnel, contractors, and people of multiple nationalities working across organizational boundaries. Our team was described as “driven by mission,” composed of “stellar performers by any index,” and committed to “always make the best decision for the mission, period.” Our team’s mission was to help keep our nation safe. That experience illustrated that a small, committed group can accomplish far more than the sum of its parts when responsibilities are divided intelligently and the mission remains paramount. The same principle has already operated in this case through the complementary contributions of four attorneys—two trial attorneys, one Colorado appellate attorney, and one U.S. Supreme Court attorney—and me. That collaboration provides a proven foundation for the expanded petition team now being assembled.
The attorneys would lead the legal strategy and exercise final professional judgment; students and newer lawyers would receive meaningful, potentially career-defining Supreme Court experience; and I would contribute my extensive knowledge of the seven-year record and the work already developed by trial and appellate counsel. The consequences have extended directly to my children: college funds that once could have paid a significant portion of their education have been decimated, leaving them facing substantial student loans instead. In a February 22, 2021 letter to Colorado Chief Justice Brian Boatright, Judge Michaelson—who served in the same judicial district in which my case arose—reported that almost two dozen judges and magistrates across 13 judicial districts shared his concerns about exhausted domestic-relations judges, escalating litigation, attorney fees consuming marital estates, and the resulting harm to children and parents. Our family’s case—most importantly, its consequences for my children—provides a concrete, documented example of the cascading emotional and financial harm that can result when substantial court errors are not corrected at the earliest opportunity and families must consume their resources obtaining appellate correction through a successful appeal and subsequent remand proceedings
The two proposed constitutional questions in our application for extension of time are the following, while the third question is being considered for the petition for writ of certiorari.
- Whether the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment permits Colorado courts to retroactively characterize the Applicant’s judicially authorized payment of his children’s parochial school tuition as “excessive spending” to justify its disproportionate marital property division under Colorado Revised Statute section 14-10-113; and
- Whether the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment permits Colorado courts to retroactively characterize the Applicant’s litigation expenses—incurred in a successful appeal of a trial court’s erroneous division of marital property—as “excessive spending” to justify its disproportionate property distribution under Colorado Revised Statute section 14-10-113 absent any supporting finding of unreasonableness.
- Whether the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment permits Colorado courts to retroactively characterize the Applicant’s judicially authorized payment of his children’s parochial school tuition, without prior notice or objective standards, as “excessive spending” to justify its disproportionate marital property division under Colorado Revised Statute section 14-10-113
Because my financial resources have been severely depleted by years of litigation including a successful appeal, participation would need to be pro bono, undertaken as a public-interest matter, or provided at an extremely reduced fee.
Sincerely,
A Parent Pursuing Justice for My Children and Other Families
