    SovCit insisted they weren’t the defendant, but was their representative; judge played along and refused to let this non-defendant represent the actual defendant as they are not an attorney.

    Either agree you are actually the defendant, or come back as a licensed attorney. In the mean time, the court can assume the defendant hasn’t/wont appear and proceed accordingly. (default judgement, bench warrant, or whatever else is applicable to this case)
