Dress Code
While attending court proceedings and ceremonies, or conducting business in the
court, all attorneys shall be attired in a proper and dignified manner that reflects respect for
the institution each one represents and the judicial process.
Business attire (suits, slacks and a sport coat or jacket, or dress) shall be worn during
court appearances.
Clothes should be properly fitted, clean, pressed and made of a material that is
appropriate to the formality of the occasion. Skirts and dresses should be at a length where
the person can sit comfortably in public without compromising decorum. Exposed shoulders
or midriffs shall not be allowed.
Counsel will ensure that their clients and witnesses fully comply with this rule.

Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
