He better hope the judge doesn't slap him for practicing law w/o a license.


Do I need an attorney to appear in court?

No, you do not need an attorney to appear in court, however, individual parties appearing in proper person are required to follow local court rules You can also do research at the Law Library. Professional businesses and corporations may not be represented by anyone other than a licensed attorney.

Rule 7.42. Appearances in proper person; entry of appearance.

(a) Unless appearing by an attorney regularly admitted to practice law in Nevada and in good standing, no entry of appearance or pleading purporting to be signed by any party to an action may be recognized or given any force or effect by any district court unless the same is signed by the party, with the signer’s address and telephone number, if any. Except when otherwise specifically provided by rule or statute, pleadings need not be verified or accompanied by affidavit.

(b) A corporation may not appear in proper person.

[As amended, effective October 13, 2005.]
