Abstract
John-Paul Boyd wrote The Rights and Responsibilities of Self-Represented Litigants in 2012 to educate self-represented litigants about what they should be able to expect from the judges, court staff and lawyers they will encounter during the litigation process.1 “Self-represented” means that a person involved in a court proceeding is not represented by a lawyer; self-represented litigants (SRLs) have a responsibility to themselves and to the court to be prepared and knowledgeable about their case, the law and court processes.
