Abstract: Let $(M,Q)$ be a compact, three dimensional manifold of strictly negative sectional curvature. Let $(Sigma,P)$ be a compact, orientable surface of hyperbolic type (i.e. of genus at least two). Let $heta:p{i}_1(Sigma,P)op{i}_1(M,Q)$ be a homomorphism. Generalising a recent result of Gallo, Kapovich and Marden concerning necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of complex projective structures with specified holonomy to manifolds of non-constant negative curvature, we obtain necessary conditions on $heta$ for the existence of a so called $heta$-equivariant Plateau problem over $Sigma$, which is equivalent to the existence of a strictly convex immersion $i:SigmaoM$ which realises $heta$ (i.e. such that $heta=i_{\ast }$).
