1. Whether the three-judge district court had jurisdiction to issue the "prisoner release order"pursuant to the Prison Litigation Reform Act ("PLRA"), 18 U.S.C. § 3626.

2. Whether the court below properly interpreted and applied Section 3626(a)(3)(E), which requires a three-judge court to find, by clear and convincing evidence, that "crowding is the primary cause of the violation of a Federal right; and . . . no other relief will remedy the violation of the Federal right" in order to issue a "prisoner release order."

3. Whether the three-judge court's "prisoner release order," which was entered to address the allegedly unconstitutional delivery of medical and mental health care to two classes of California inmates, but mandates a system-wide population cap within two years that will require a population reduction of approximately 46,000 inmates, satisfies the PLRA's nexus and narrow tailoring requirements while giving sufficient weight to potential adverse effects on public safety and the State's operation of its criminal justice system.
