I cant consult with any of the lawyers around here even if u pay them it’s the same outcome
I'm sorry to hear about your challenges. You might consider contacting the North Dakota State Bar Association for a referral to a lawyer outside of Minot, or consult online legal services. You still have legal rights and options.
Believe me I’ve tried for several things. The courts have it out for me.can I file the papers myself
Absolutely, you have the right to represent yourself in court. This is known as "pro se" representation. However, please be aware that the legal system can be complex and it's often recommended to have legal representation.
I’ve been dealing with the courts since I was a kid. But this place makes up shit to suit them. I was beaten by the police and they crushed my cheek bones. Couldn’t get a lawyer in state or out of state to do anything. I was stabbed with a foot long file and I was held at gun point for an hour and a half choking on the blood coming from my lungs. Lying in the gravel. I can go on and on.
I'm really sorry to hear about your experience. If you believe your rights were violated, you could file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division. Also, consider reaching out to organizations like the ACLU. They may be able to assist or guide you.
I’m so fed up with the bull shit here I want to start doing something about it myself and not the legal way
I understand you're frustrated, but it's essential to handle things legally to avoid worsening the situation. Always remember, there are organizations that can help. Consider contacting the ACLU or the U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division to report any violation of your rights.
