                     APPEARANCE BY ATTORNEY


  (a)  Notice of Appearance.  An attorney admitted to practice in
this state may appear for a party by serving a notice of appearance.

(b)  Notice of Limited Appearance.  If specifically so stated in
a notice of limited appearance filed and served prior to or
simultaneous with the proceeding, an attorney's role may be
limited to one or more individual proceedings in the action.
Service on an attorney who has made a limited appearance for a
party shall be valid (to the extent permitted by statute and rule
5(b)) only in connection with the specific proceedings for which
the attorney has appeared, including any hearing or trial at
which the attorney appeared and any subsequent motions for
presentation of orders.  At the conclusion of such proceedings
the attorney's role terminates without the necessity of leave of
court, upon the attorney filing notice of completion of limited
appearance which notice shall include the client information
required by Rule 71(c)(1).
