What if the company has no money with which to hire a lawyer? Does the government appoint one in a civil trial? Does the decision to not file a defense argue for an immediate forced bankruptcy filing? If JP is the President, CEO, Chairman, CFO, Secretary, and largest shareholder, who else represents the company's interests in the eyes of the law? And are his interests the same as ours?
Stay tuned. It gets interesting from here.
BTW, what's the status on the criminal case? Are there any due dates coming up soon? If JP thinks he's going to run through this gauntlet of trials without a small fortune to pay lawyers, he's sadly mistaken. But it wouldn't be his first time, would it?
