If judgment was entered in 2007 then it is too late to appeal. You may have other remedies available, but your question is not very clear. Did you ask for an appointed lawyer? If not, why not? If so, why didn't you get one? Did you have private counsel? Why do you think your prior case is relevant?

I am an experienced appellate lawyer and am certified by the State Bar as an appellate specialist. Feel free to contact me directly if you want to discuss your case further.
