The same rules of court apply to a case whether it is filed by an attorney or by a person without legal training.  We will accept any documents that you have prepared for filing, along with the appropriate filing fee, if required.  Our acceptance of documents does not imply that they are the correct form or that they are filled out properly.   It is extremely important that pro se litigants read carefully and understand the pleadings that they are filing before filing anything with the Court.
