Impact of Vexatious Litigant Orders on Self-Represented Litigants
This is an information-gathering exercise by the National Self-Represented Litigants Project (nsrlp.com). If you are a self-represented litigant and have been labelled a vexatious litigant, or been made subject to a court restriction order, we would like to learn more about your experience. This short survey should not take more than 15 minutes of your time. We greatly appreciate your help in compiling this data.

How Law Affects the Relationship Between the People and Government
Law is a significant factor in how the individual is able or is forced to interact with the state. It may be a force of oppression, it may protect people from each other and indeed, from the state itself. It may enable people to attain rights and benefits. Our nexus with law helps to define us as a society. When the opportunity to employ law to attain rights is diminished or when law is used as a threat to force particular conduct based on improper motives, the nature of that nexus changes.
