This week on the Weekly Docket, join Phil and Chris as they explore the rising trend of using AI for pro se representation in Texas courts. They clarify the legal boundaries of DIY lawyering, explaining why individuals can use AI to represent themselves but are strictly prohibited from using it to represent business entities like LLCs or corporations without risking struck pleadings and defaults. They also reveal a probate fact that can save executors from a bureaucratic nightmare: why you should never deposit an original Will with the court clerk before filing a formal Application to Probate. Finally, stay tuned for a practical look at Motions to Retain in the face of a Dismissal for Want of Prosecution (DWOP) and a reality check on whether a constable can legally serve you by simply leaving a lawsuit under your doormat.⏰  Timestamps00:00 Intro2:01 The AI Lawyer?
