A party enters an appearance when they show up to court in response to a service of process . Appearance isnt only a reference to physical presence in court when required, but also to procedural compliance (e.g., filing an answer , participating in discovery ).
In California, an attorney is required to file a notice of appearance in court in order to represent a party in a lawsuit. This notice informs the court and all parties involved that the attorney will be representing the party and should be the primary point of contact for all legal matters related to the case.
All attorneys (except court appointed attorneys) must file an Appearance of Counsel Form in each appeal in which they participate within 14 days after notice is mailed by the clerk. Click here for the appearance form.
