Description
Plaintiff Tse-Ming Cheung, M.D., appeals from Judge Elfvins dismissal of his pro se complaint. Although the complaint is solely in his name, the litigation is brought on behalf of his minor daughter under various civil rights statutes, including 42 U.S.C. § 1981 (1982). The underlying dispute arose when a youth orchestra gave Cheungs daughter a seat in the first violin section that Cheung and his daughter regarded as inappropriate. The complaint alleges that the seating was based on her Chinese-American national origin. Cheung, as the plaintiff, seeks to bring this complaint pro se. We hold that he may not do so and remand to give him an opportunity to retain a lawyer.
