Cutting through the numerous issues raised by the parties as to whether certain claims are assignable, the precise issue to be determined in this proceeding is whether an assignee, not a licensed attorney, who is an officer of the corporation which assigned the claims to the officer-assignee to recover a rent-security deposit, may maintain litigation in the courts of this state when the assignor-corporation could not itself maintain suit. We hold that the as-signee-officer of the corporation, under such an assignment, cannot file and maintain an action under circumstances where the corporation itself is precluded from so doing without representation by a licensed attorney.
