I am a pro se litigant in a civil case. The judge dismissed in favor of corrupt defendants. How do I reopen the case? MMontae

If you have lost, moved to reconsider and lost on Rule 60 the case is likely done for. You need to convince an appeal lawyer to look at your case, but since you went pro se in the trial court I would hesitate to take you on because of the record in the case.

Good luck to you.

God bless. I am in Chicago, IL.

This site should not be used as a substitute for competent legal advice from a licensed professional attorney that practices in NH in the subject practice discipline and with whom you have an atttorney client relationship along with all the privileges that relationship provides.

Your summary illustrates why it is best for laypersons to hire an attorney to represent them. It is impossible to determine from your summary why you lost your case, but it could have been because you failed to understand the rules of evidence and therefore failed to succeed in introducing evidence to support your case. At this point, you would need to file an appeal. I would recommend that you hire an attorney to represent you on appeal, as the procedural and substantive law is difficult for the untrained.

I would like an answer from an attorney please.
