    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!

      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.
