Each set of rules will contain a section/area on 'Standing' that is the authority to appear before the court as a 'party' to an action, i.e. applicant/respondent, prosecutor/defendant, plaintiff/defendant, etc; or as a 'friend of the court' such representation being necessary for equitable court process.
