Pro Se And Habeas Cases

Print Guideline

These matters are generally decided without oral argument. Notices, Orders, and Reports & Recommendations are mailed to those parties who are not e-filers. The court does not have funds to appoint counsel for unrepresented persons, but will consider appointment of pro bono counsel in appropriate cases. Pro se litigants are expected to adhere to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure insofar as possible. The court does not give legal advice to litigants and expects that pleadings and papers will be in an appropriate form.
