William H. Viehweg v. Insurance Programs Management Group, LLC, et al.

Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, No. 24-1287 · judgment September 12, 2024


Certiorari denied · March 24, 2025
Pre-decision estimate: 0% cert probability

Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate: the model weighted this down for a self-represented petitioner.

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?
