Ind. Courts - Updating: Do ALJs lack the authority to grant pro hac vice appearances for out-of-state attorneys appearing before their agencies? [Updated]
Updating an entry posted by the ILB earlier this afternoon, the ILB has received two notes from readers:
- Reader #1. [I hope] that the eventual outcome will provide guidance and can be reconciled with IC 4-21.5-3-15, which has been used to allow foreign attorneys to be “duly authorized representatives” in administrative hearings but not as attorneys.
- Reader #2. Any guidance or suggestion that the Court is looking at the issue of non-attorneys in the administrative setting? As an example, nationwide HR firms that represent Indiana employers in unemployment appeal hearings. It seems the logical next step.
- Reader #3. [Re #2] Remember the Drew Miller case?! [ILB: State ex rel ISBA v. M. Drew Miller (6/26/2002)]
