Attorney—Notice of Appearance; Withdrawal.

-66- (b) Change of Status of Attorney. A generally or specially admitted attorney must notify the clerk and the chief judge of this court within 14 days after the attorney has– (1) entered any admission status before the Oregon State Bar other than active status, including changing to inactive status for any reason, (2) been suspended or disbarred from practice by any court, (3) been convicted of a felony in a state or federal court, (4) resigned from the bar of any court while an investigation was pending into allegations of misconduct warranting suspension or disbarment, or (5) been notified of a change in admission status in any jurisdiction that would affect the attorney’s eligibility for special admission in this court. (c) Representation of an Organization. Except as permitted by (d) and except for child-support creditors or their representatives appearing in accordance with Section 304(g) of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1994, Pub.

L. No. 103-394, 108 Stat. 4134 (1994), any entity that is not an individual, including a corporation, partnership, association, limited liability company, or limited liability partnership, may file documents or appear before this court only through an admitted attorney. (d) Self-Represented Creditor and Creditor Represented by Nonadmitted Attorney. A creditor, acting without an attorney or through a nonadmitted attorney, may file and amend a proof of claim; sign a stipulation allowing, modifying, or disallowing a proof of claim; or file a document via ePOC or, if authorized by a court ECF registrar, an ECF event under the “Creditor Claimant” menu. (e) Action by Represented Party.

A party represented by an attorney in this court may not file documents in or appear before this court except through the attorney. (f) Attorney of Record. (1) If a party is represented by one admitted attorney, the attorney is the attorney of record. If a party is represented by more than one admitted attorney, the attorney of record is the attorney designated as such in the first document filed on behalf of the party or, if no designation is made, the first attorney named in that document.

As used in this rule, and notwithstanding § 101(4), an attorney of record is an individual, not a law firm. (2) The name of the attorney of record must appear on each document filed on behalf of the party, but the document may be signed or filed by another attorney in the attorney of record’s firm. (3) An attorney of record may be replaced as such by another admitted attorney—including one specially admitted—without leave of court. The new attorney of record must file a notice of substitution of attorney of record.

If the substitution affects more than one case or proceeding, the notice may list all affected cases or proceedings but must be filed in each. (4) Service on a party’s attorney that is permitted or required by FRBP 7004(g) or (h)(1) or 7005 or by these rules must be made on the party’s attorney of record. 12/1/2025
