I'm curious what exactly the federal government is asking for. Do they want their lawyers to be able to appear in Arizona courts with no formalities at all, or do they just want a waiver of the fees and need to apply in writing, while still requiring the permission of the individual judge to appear before him?
Not sure, but I suspect they want to assert that federal prosecutors have something akin to universal jurisdiction and can appear in any court they choose to as though they were attorneys approved by that State's Bar.
