An Attorney Who is Not Licensed in California can still represent a creditor in this court by obtaining court approval to appear pro hac vice. It may be difficult for the attorney to provide legal services due to travel and because in certain scenarios telephonic appearances at court hearings are not allowed. A local attorney must also be designated as co-counsel. All attorneys should read the Local Bankruptcy Rules, especially LBR 2090-1.
