Clinics starting to help people to be represented in the court

Monday, December 14th, 2009

Zina Butler is one of those people who did not know where to go when some of the county housing officers together with the sheriff and landlord came to her small and subsidized apartment approx. 2 years ago without providing and kind of advance notice.

Butler who is 46 said that she wanted to file lawsuit in which as she explained her Fourth Amendment right was violated. This Fourth Amendment right was supposed to prevent anyone from conducting illegal and not authorized searches and seizures.

However she was unable to find an appropriate attorney and was pretty scared of going through the legal system on her own. She then found a clinic located at the federal courthouse in the district of L.A which was providing assistance to the people who wanted to self represent themselves in the court. This was a blessing from the God, Butler indicated. If there was no clinics like these, people would just run over you, Butler added.
