Ok, my friend, who had a chapter 7, was scheduled to be discharged today. At the very last minute, his ex filed a pro se AP with the court objecting to 14k in a civil judgment she obtained against him to be discharged. Her lawyer who did the case in state court is not allowed to practice in federal court (he is an ambulance chaser), so he drafted the "pro se motion" and cited all the applicable rules and why it should not be discharged, and gave it to the ex, and she filed it as her own on day 60, forgot the filing fee, but the court gave her time to remedy the deficiency.
Anyways, is there anything my friend can do since we know the ex (who is dumb as a bag of hammers) got the complaint from her atty who is not allowed to practice in federal, and told her to file it "pro se" when in fact it is not????
Since he is not allowed or admitted I should say in fed court, he is doing this for her and having her pro se it. Total BS.
BTW the 14k civil judgment was BS too...it was from when my friends 17 year old son threw a wrench at my friend and busted his arm and his dad slapped him in the head, he called the police and ran to an atty and sued his dad for 20k for mental anguish, and other bs reasons, medical bills (which the health insurance paid), etc. My friend could not get off work on the day of the trial asked for 3 emergency continuances and was denied, so they got a default judgment.
So what can be done, my friend is pro se as well.
