Rule 9.045 - REPRESENTATION(1) If a personal representative or conservator intends to appear on behalf of the estate or protected person without an attorney, the personal representative or conservator shall provide notice of that intent to the court and proof of competence to so appear. If the proof is not sufficient to assure the court the estate will be protected and properly administered, the court will take appropriate action.(2) A person other than a personal representative or conservator, or a corporation, may appear in person without counsel in any matter coming before the probate judge if otherwise allowed by law. The person appearing and counsel for the personal representative shall notify the probate judge if any party to a proceeding is appearing self-represented.Umatilla Supp. L. R. 9.045
