- ilnd;;1:08-cv-01751_de52 RegisterActionDescriptionText "MINUTE entry before the Honorable Robert M. Dow, Jr: After the status hearing of June 17, 2009 was held [see 51], on June 25, 2009, the Court received by fax a letter 52 from Mr. Joseph Feldoldi, a managing director of Defendant, explaining that Defendant cannot afford to retain counsel and inquiring whether Defendant could submit written evidence in defense of its position acting pro se, or whether mounting a defense is possible only through a licensed attorney. As the Court explained in its May 27 minute order 49 , because Defendant is a corporate entity, and not a natural person, (i) it must be represented by a licensed attorney and (ii) the Court has no mechanism for considering whether to appoint an attorney to represent Defendant's interests, regardless of Defendant's financial circumstances. Thus, while the Court is not unsympathetic to Defendant's plight, the precedent from our Supreme Court makes clear that Defendant may resist Plaintiff's complaint only through the efforts of a licensed attorney, which Defendant must retain. If Defendant does not retain counsel to represent Defendant's interests in this litigation, it may face efforts by Plaintiff to obtain sanctions and/or a default judgment. Mailed notice (mb, ) (Entered: 07/02/2009)" @default.
