Pro se means representing yourself in court. Before filing a case, learn about the system through self-help programs and manuals. File a complaint, serve the cause, research the case, and attend a hearing. The discovery period is important. The defendant can have a lawyer, but you must present your case.

Appearing in person means representing yourself in court rather than using the services of a lawyer. Before filing a court case, you should learn about the system by taking advantage of pro se manuals and self-help programs available in your state. Then you can file a complaint, serve your cause, and research the case. Finally, you attend the hearing where you will be able to argue your case before a judge.

Pro se is a Latin term meaning self. It is most commonly used in US law. In Britain, the litigant pro se is known as the litigant himself.
The best way to ensure you can successfully file pro ses is to learn the system beforehand. Many states offer self-help programs to assist litigants who have chosen to act on their own. Most courts also offer a handbook that provides detailed filing instructions in that particular court. This is a valuable resource because the process can vary slightly from court to court.

You can then file your complaint. A claim is a document that tells the court why you’re suing, who you’re suing, and what you expect to get if you win. The court will likely expect you to pay a filing fee when you submit these documents.

Once you’ve notified the court of your intentions, it’s time to let the person know you’re suing. This is called serving the cause. You do this by sending a copy of the complaint and an official summons. The summons is a document that explicitly states that the defendant has been subpoenaed and the date he is due to appear in court.

After all parties have been notified, the court issues a scheduling order. This is the timeline that will follow the case. It tells all parties when documents need to be presented, how long the discovery period will be, and when they need to appear in court.

The discovery period is especially important for litigants submitting prosecutions. During this time you can research the case, question witnesses and build a body of evidence. The law may require litigants to share certain information with each other at this stage to promote fairness in legal proceedings.
Finally, you will attend a formal hearing. At the hearing, both parties will appear before a judge and defend their case. Since you have chosen to submit the application yourself, you will need to submit the case yourself. However, the defendant can have a lawyer. He presents your case logically, referring to any evidence available to you to support your claim. The defendant will then do the same. After hearing both sides, the judge will issue a verdict.
