QUESTION PRESENTED
Under 18 U.S.C. § 3771(d)(3), a crime victimseeking to enforce a right under the Crime Victims’Rights Act “may petition the court of appeals for awrit of mandamus. . . . The court of appeals shall takeup and decide such application forthwith . . . .” Doesthis provision entitle crime victims to ordinaryappellate review of their claims (as the Second,Third, Ninth, and Eleventh Circuits have held) oronly to limited mandamus review for “clear andindisputable error” (as the Fifth Circuit held below, joining the Sixth, Tenth, and D.C. Circuits)?
