In an individual proceeding, any party has the right to have an attorney who is licensed to practice law by the Oklahoma Supreme Court. The attorney shall be given authority to act for and bind the party he or she represents. If a party names an attorney, the EBD or Director shall communicate with the attorney and not with the party. It shall be the responsibility of the party's attorney to communicate with the party.
