appearer


Explanation:
This might be what you are looking for. It seems (appears!) to be used in translations from Dutch and Danish, but it is a new word for me in this context.

Example sentence(s):
  • "hereby acting as appearer, which means a written representative with full power of substitution..."
  • appearant [a'piarant], appearer [a'piara] jur Komparent, m0dende c.
