A quick definition of Martinez report:

A Martinez report is a document that a person representing themselves in court may be asked to submit if their complaint is unclear or difficult to understand. The report is meant to clarify the issues and make the case easier to follow. This requirement comes from a legal case called Martinez v. Aaron.

A more thorough explanation:

MARTINEZ REPORT

A Martinez report is a document that a court may ask a pro se party (someone representing themselves in court) to file if their complaint is unclear or difficult to understand. The report is meant to clarify the issues in the case and make it easier for the court to understand what the party is asking for.

For example, if someone is representing themselves in a lawsuit and their complaint is poorly written or confusing, the court may ask them to file a Martinez report. The report would explain the facts of the case, the legal issues involved, and what the party is asking the court to do.

Another example might be if someone is filing for bankruptcy on their own and their petition is incomplete or unclear. The court may ask them to file a Martinez report to provide more information about their financial situation and why they need to file for bankruptcy.

These examples illustrate how a Martinez report can help a pro se party clarify their case and make it easier for the court to understand what they are asking for.
