    If the person was determined by a court of law not to be mentally fit to understand the legal action, then their guardian ( court would appoint them a guardian to care for them) could file suit to over turn prior legal action proving they were not mentally able to defend thierself.

    But merely having mental issues, and some mental illness that does not effect this ability to represent theirself will not have a bearning
