Section 16:51-1.5 - Appearance

(a) No person or party, except an individual appearing on his or her own behalf, shall be permitted to participate in any proceeding before the Division, unless such person or party is represented by an attorney of this State in good standing. Any attorney from any other jurisdiction and in good standing there may, at the discretion of the Director or the Directors designee, be admitted pro hac vice to participate in a proceeding in the same manner as an attorney of this State; provided, however, that all pleadings, briefs, and other papers filed with the Division may be required to be signed by an attorney of record authorized to practice in this State, which attorney shall be held responsible for them.

(b) Any attorney wishing to withdraw from a proceeding before the Division shall, in writing, immediately notify the Director or the Directors designee, the party whom he or she represents, and all other parties of record of his or her request to do so. The request may be denied if, in the discretion of the Director, it is necessary to prevent duplication, delay, or disruption of the proceedings.

(c) Any person appearing before or transacting business with the Division in a representative capacity may be required by the Division to file evidence of his or her authority to act in such capacity.
