You have been appointed as a trustee of a client’s children’s educational trust. You need to petition the court for a release of the funds for no educational purposes—paying the taxes on the trust income. May you appear alone as the trustee and represent the trust in the court proceedings? Would a no lawyer or no paralegal be permitted to appear? See Ziegler v. Nickel, 64 Cal. App. 4th 545, 75 Cal. Rptr. 2d 312, 1998 Cal. App. Lexis 500 (Cal. App., 1998).
