Question presented

Does The Private Citizen Have Standing In Court The Question becomes can the Private Citizen as a non-bar attorney bring a claim into a District Court when evidence of false misleading allegations are made by a Law Firm and the District Court conspires to deny the Private Citizen the right to bring their claim as a Private Citizen to expose these facts because they are not members of the Bar. To have the district Court refuse or deny subject matter and Jurisdiction when a private Citizen is given jurisdiction under Article III section 2 Citizens of Different States, 28 USC1332 (1) Citizens of Different States and 28 USC chapter 5 District Court Section 129 West Virginia to be told the District Court has no jurisdiction. The Question also becomes when a Law Firm conspires to misrepresent the facts in order to deprive the Private Citizen of any defense knowing the claim is not against the Private Citizen but against their Franchise name and their way of denying the Private Citizen the right to a defense on the grounds, they are not members of the Bar. Does this not violate the 14th Amendment of Due Process of law, The 7th Amendment the Right to a Trial and the 1st Amendment the right to freedom of speech and the right for Redress and the equal protection due process clause. The Private Citizen are being denied the right to Burden of Proof because they are not members of the Bar and because the evidence would be so overwhelming that it exposes the Law Firms misleading false claims.
