Mike Lindell officially loses all his lawyers in $5M 'Prove Mike Wrong' cyber challenge
MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell has been officially notified that he no longer has legal representation in a case in which he was ordered to pay over $5 million for a security contest related to the 2020 presidential election.Engineer Robert Zeidman entered the "Prove Mike Wrong" challenge and proved that...
You're viewing a single thread.
Having heard him make a deposition, Lindell's the kind of guy I could see insisting on representing himself against better judgement.
There's no better judgement than Mike Lindell's judgement. That's a lumpy MyPillow guarantee!
It was unclear if Lindell would retain new counsel in the case. As Foster pointed out, business entities cannot represent themselves in court.
lol not even if he wanted to (which would be very entertaining to watch, sadly)
I thought that to be interesting, never heard that before. Wonder what the reasoning is?
If it's incorporated (not a sole proprietorship or a partnership), the business is a legal entity just as a person, so the company would have to represent itself, but it's not a real physical entity, so it can't.
Just stuff a bunch of his pillows into a suit and call it a day. I mean how bad can M. Pillow, esquire, do?
And Lindell is not a lawyer so he can’t either.
You… you’ve seen his commercials right? He seems like not only the kind of guy who would represent himself, but he would also be on a ton of cocaine when he does it.
I think his cocaine use is determined by if he's writing a book at the time or not?
Can you practically represent yourself (as a non-lawyer) in a court as high as what he needs to appeal? They will throw it out on procedure grounds alone right?
I don't think he can. I seem to recall businesses aren't allowed to represent themselves in court.
He's going to end up with an overworked public defender.
