A non-lawyer sought leave under Rule 15.01(2) of the Rules of Civil Procedure to represent a corporate defendant in an action involving a purchaser's lien.
The court applied the Extend-A-Call factors and denied leave, finding that the proposed representative was not an officer, director, or shareholder, lacked understanding of the litigation process, and took positions contrary to the corporation's pleadings.
The motion was dismissed, and the corporation was ordered to be represented by a lawyer.
