What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
If the court approved release of my lawyer, can my brother represent me as my legal counsel at the court hearing? My English is poor, I'm 79, and I'm slow. (Note: the brother is writing here.) In other words, can he talk on my behalf with me at his side?

If your brother is a licensed attorney in CA, then yes.

If he is not, then no.

You mean you didn't start those other three threads?

You mean you lied?

Are you telling the truth now?

I didn't post them and have no idea what they are about. I wonder if other people are using my alias. I'll check them some other time. sorry about the misunderstanding/inconvenience.
