Section 26
SEC. 26. Authority to appear. — No written power of attorney shall be required to authorize a duly enrolled lawyer to appear in court for his client, but the presiding judge may, on motion of either party, and on reasonable grounds therefor being shown, require any lawyer who assumes the right to appear in an action or proceeding to produce or prove the authority under which he appears, and to disclose, whenever pertinent to any issue, the name of the person who employed him, and may make any order that justice may require on such investigation; but, prima facie, lawyers shall be held properly authorized to represent any causes they may appear in.
