Rule 5. Appearances by counsel
5.1. Upon being retained, counsel shall forthwith file a written entry of appearance, unless counsel's entry of appearance is apparent from pleadings filed.
5.2. On pleadings and in the entry of appearance, counsel shall set forth counsel's office address, mailing address, telephone number, fax number, and e-mail address.
5.3. Once having entered appearance, counsel shall remain of record, unless relieved of responsibilities by the Court upon written motion and notice (with copy of said motion served on the client), until expiration of the time for filing a notice of appeal after the entry of a final judgment or order. For good cause shown, the Court may permit oral motions to withdraw so long as the interests of the litigant are not adversely affected.
5.4. Unless counsel specifies otherwise on the record, an entry of appearance is considered to be a general appearance for all purposes. An entry of appearance for a limited purpose shall specify the limited nature of counsel's representation of the client.
