Does a disqualification order require a party to hire new counsel for the purposes of representing themselves in court?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Urs Corp. v. Venture, 15 Cal.App.5th 872, 223 Cal.Rptr.3d 674 (Cal. App. 2017):
8 This second point is particularly true of corporate parties, which cannot represent themselves in court. (Ferruzzo v. Superior Court (1980) 104 Cal.App.3d 501, 503, 163 Cal.Rptr. 573.) However, practically speaking, a disqualification order requires a party to hire new counsel regardless of whether the party is an entity or individual.
