Join us加入我们Who may represent whom?谁可以代理谁?
In the United States, the right to represent yourself in court is long established. Representing someone else is more limited — here is the general picture. Rules differ by court and jurisdiction, so always check your local court's rules.在美国,自己出庭辩护的权利由来已久。为他人代理则受到更多限制 —— 以下是一般情况。各法院和司法管辖区的规则不同,请务必查阅您当地法院的规定。
Representing yourself为自己代理
You generally have the right to appear "pro se" — on your own behalf — in civil and criminal cases, in state and federal courts. Courts often provide self-help centers and standard forms for people without lawyers.在民事和刑事案件中,您通常有权以“自行代理”(pro se)的方式出庭,无论州法院还是联邦法院。许多法院为没有律师的当事人提供自助中心和标准表格。
Representing family and friends为家人和朋友代理
Parents may generally represent their minor children, and people may act for others through powers of attorney or as court-appointed representatives in limited settings. But acting as someone's lawyer in court without a license is usually not allowed.父母通常可以代理未成年子女,在特定情形下也可通过授权书或法院指定为他人行事。但在法庭上以律师身份代理他人,通常需要执业资格。
"I believe ordinary people can learn the law, speak in court, and stand up for themselves and the people they love." “我相信普通人能够学习法律、在法庭上发声,为自己和所爱的人挺身而出。”
