You can ask, but you'll be wasting your time. If you're not careful, your verdict will be overturned on appeal.

He/she has a lawyer. Don't you think you need one? I've never lost a "pro se" case.

destrict court

Thanks armyjudge I will leave the hearing alone. I have sought a pro bono attorney, and the only one that has any interest is busy, but at the same time he said that if we still didnt have council after a couple of weeks to call him again and he would see if he could squeeze us in. So again I guess im just waiting. I cannot afford council, thus it just stands like it is.
