In this second edition of a book first published in September 2017, Judge Posner explains the measures his company has taken to improve the representation of pro se litigants throughout the nation. He focuses on the problems of the pro ses, the people, often prisoners, who bring lawsuits without a lawyer and the staff attorneys who review these lawsuits and make recommendations to the judges on how to decide the cases. .

About the Author:-
Richard Posner ("Dick" to his friends) was born in New York City in 1939, the only child of Max and Blanche Posner. Max was a successful lawyer and businessman, Blanche an outstanding English teacher in New York public high schools. Dick was enrolled in top-flight private schools in Manhattan, beginning in prekindergarten. After the Posners moved in Scarsdale in 1948, he was enrolled in top-flight public schools in Scarsdale and later in Bronxville. Admitted to Yale College at age 16 (skipping his fourth year of high school), Dick graduated summa cum laude and three years later graduated first in his class at Harvard Law School. Following a Supreme Court clerkship and stints in the Federal Trade Commission, the Solicitor General's Office, and a presidential commission on communications policy, Dick became a law professor first at Stanford and then a year later at the University of Chicago, where he was a full professor from his appointment in 1970 until his appointment to the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals in 1981. He has just retired from the court after 35 years, including 7 years as the court's chief judge.
