The only proof he is using to say he was a co-founder is a YC application. This is I hope a non-binding document. I hope judge agrees that the only way to get equity in a company is if its granted in the form of shares. Jeremy was never granted any shares so he own's 0 shares.

That's not how it works. If you and I decide to start a company and you give me a verbal agreement that it's a 50/50 split, then it's pretty strong evidence of the ownership of the company unless some other document supersedes it.

From what I can tell so, no such document exists.
