Pak is a pro se litigant in this matter. The motion, however, is signed by Min W. Pak as “Attorney-in-Fact” for Pak. Min W. Pak does not appear to be a licensed attorney in Texas.

App.—Houston [1st Dist.] Aug. 25, 2011, no pet.) (mem. op.); see TEX. R. APP. P. 9.1 (“A party not represented by counsel must sign any document that the party files . . . .”). Because Pak may only represent himself or be represented by licensed counsel, we STRIKE the motion without prejudice to Pak refiling a motion within seven days that complies with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure.
