Does admission to the state bar mean that a plaintiff has a right to appear before the district court?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Raiford v. Pounds, 640 F.2d 944 (9th Cir. 1981):
Admission to a state bar does not carry with it the right to appear before a district court. In re Rappaport, 558 F.2d 87, 89 (2d Cir. 1977). A district court has broad discretion concerning admission to practice before it. Lefton v. City of Hattiesburg, 333 F.2d 280, 285 (5th Cir. 1964). This discretion is limited in that it may not be exercised to abridge the rights of litigants. Id.
