Question presented

Whether the lower courts’ recognition of three defendants’ entries of appearances as their own attorneys, including legal co­ counsel, rather than personally, like a pro se, is inconsistent with the legal holdings in Kay v. Ehrler, 499 U.S. 432; violates 28 U.S.C. Section 1654; and violates petitioner’s United States Constitution’s Fourteenth Amendment right to due process and equal protection of law?
