Q: Pro se in EQCV084907: Plaintiff abuses court process—how can I escalate systemic issues to protect due process?
In Woodruff Construction LLC v. Henry Herrera et al. (EQCV084907), I am a pro se litigant facing systemic procedural abuses:
Plaintiff prematurely filed a default judgment, ignoring deadlines set by the court.
Improper service was made on a dissolved LLC and at outdated addresses, violating Iowa law.
Plaintiff’s counsel defied court orders for separate debtor’s examinations, stating on record: “I’m going to do it how I would like to do it.”
Fraudulent alterations to contract documents were submitted during arbitration, manipulating scope and liabilities.
Broad subpoenas and delays caused financial strain and reputational harm.
These actions violate due process and procedural fairness. My goal is to escalate this case to higher courts to highlight systemic failures impacting pro se litigants. How can I expose these abuses effectively and hold the plaintiff accountable while building a strong case for appeal? Advice on next steps or similar experiences is appreciated.
