When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

petitioner and Ms. XXX, attorney at law (two different persons)
As far as I can tell, only Mr. YYY is appearing on the side of the petitioner; otherwise, it would have been Ms. XXX who would have appeared for the petitioner. Mr. XXX is representing not only the petitioner, but is also the petitioner's counsel.
This is often the case, if the trial is being held away from the petitioner's domicile. For example, if my client sues someone in Munich, I will employ the services of an attorney in Munich to appear at the trial (which is usually where the defendant is located). I will do all the preparatory work and the attorney in Munich will just appear to the trial and file those motions that I would have. Afterwards, the attorney in Munich will let me know how it went and I'll have to give the attorney in Munich a portion of my fees.
If the judge is cool, my client will not have to appear in court (it would be a long trip and would drive the costs up). I can't tell whether or not the defendant actually HAD to appear (this is sometimes the case), but even if not, the defendant can appear - together with counsel, of course.
This is a very common practice and is meant to save costs and long trips. I hope that made sense...
