Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, No. 24-10195 · judgment May 15, 2024
Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate, with no standout signals pointing toward a grant.
Question presented
A pro se can conduct their own case under 28 U.S.C. § 1654, however, because the practice of law is ill defined, and often varies from venue to venue, has caused the pro se’s to not be able to conduct their case. Florida’s state bar goes as far as to have a restriction on the freedom to be able to talk about your case. Just talking about your case to another person ‘even outside of court’ can make you a felon in Florida, hence the emergency appeal. The question presented is: Can State immunity be overruled in order to enforce the status que of conduct in 28 U.S.C. § 1654 & 1st Amendment speech, and in the ADA..
