Because Sanctuary At The Chuckwagon LLC is a business entity, it must be represented
by an attorney to appear in superior court. See Rule 31, Rules of the Supreme Court of Arizona.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Sanctuary At The Chuckwagon LLC shall have
until September 4, 2024, to file a Notice of Appearance by properly admitted counsel. If no such
Notice is filed by this date, the Court may dismiss the case. See e.g., Boydston v. Strole Dev. Co.,
193 Ariz. 47, 49, 969 P.2d 653, 655 (1998); see also Ramada Inns, Inc. v. Lane and Bird Adver.,
Inc., 102 Ariz. 127, 128, 426 P.2d 395, 396 (1967) (“Absent statutory authority a corporation
cannot practice law even in its own behalf. A corporation cannot appear in court by an officer who
is not an attorney, and it cannot appear in propria persona.”); Mohr, Hackett, Pederson, Blakley,
Randolph & Haga, P.C. v. Superior Court, 155 Ariz. 150, 150, 745 P.2d 208, 208 (Ct. App. 1987)
(the general rule is that a “corporation, unlike a natural person, cannot represent itself in court”);
Hunt Invest. Co. v. Eliot, 154 Ariz. 357, 362, 742 P.2d 858, 863 (Ct. App. 1987) (“And, of course,
it has long been held that a corporation must be represented by a licensed attorney – it cannot be
represented by a lay employee or appear in propria persona.”).
