I'm sympathetic to the claims presented but how can Think file suit pro se? Corporation are considered separate persons and therefore cannot be represented pro se as has been held in numerous cases (e.g. Brandstein v. White Lamps). While there are limited exceptions for administrative claims, this suit is not being filed as a continuation of the process but rather for damages created by flaws in it.

It seems that the two options are to find counsel willing to represent Think pro bono or for Aaron to re-craft this as a personal claim.

Note that I am not an attorney and this does not constitute legal advice.




Is it possible to file suit, and then in the future retain legal counsel for representation? (i.e. is it possible Aaron has simply yet to hire a lawyer?)
