Legal Question in Personal Injury in Connecticut
law of the case
a judge had denied a motion by defendants to strike my pro se appearance, thus allowing me to proceed as pro se plaintiff. two months later, another judge, the trial judge assigned, at the pretrial conference, decided to overule the previous judge and sua sponte opined in a memorandum that I could not proceed pro se and must find a lawyer. Was this a violation of due process? What recourse do i have?

Re: law of the case
Your recourse is to find an attorney. If the court ordered you to find an attorney, you must comply or risk having the case dismissed. If you want to appeal the court's decision or orders, you can only do so at certain times. If you need further help, you can email me at [email protected].

It would depend on why the court will not let you continue pro se. Best to check with a lawyer.
