In 2016, Uncivil Law sued the Patent Office acting pro se. The cause of action arose from a workplace grievance when Kurt was working as a Patent Examiner. (That is his only substanial work experience, Kurt has negligible experience as an attorney). The genesis of Kurt's case was that he was deemed not competent to be entrusted with a particular level of authority despite completing the requisite training for that level. Kurt complained about this decision then kept complaining about how his initial complaint was handled. The Union got to a point where they declined to continue helping Kurt complain
Kurt continued to complain without the Union's help and eventually escalated his grievance to the point of suing the Patent Office in federal court. His preferred remedy was for the court to force the Patent Office to promote him to a much higher level of authority than the one for which he was found not to be competent.
The case did not go well for Kurt. In the dismissal, the judge warned him that trying to bring another version of the case in a court of the same jurisdiction could result in sanctions.
Details of the case:
Mueller v. UNITED STATES PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE
Case number: 1:15-cv-00847
I was able to read Kurt's initial complaint, a memorandum in opposition to the Patent Office's motion to dismiss, and the judge's dismissal on site linked to below.
There are a lot of exhibits and filings not accessible at the site linked above. If someone is able to get hold of all the case information, I would be grateful
