The Third Circuit has reiterated that only a violation of a fundamental right results in automatic remand without a showing of prejudice. “For a regulation to protect a fundamental right, a violation must be a structural error that necessarily makes proceedings fundamentally unfair. Very few rights will fit this extraordinary category. [T]hese include the rights to counsel and to an unbiased judge. But rights outside this category are not fundamental enough to trigger [a] presumption of prejudice.”
