Can an attorney only licensed to practice in 1 state, request a federal court

hearing in a different state? without violating the limits of their license?

I know as a licensed professional in California, I am not allowed to engage in the practice of my profession by using my license in another state. To do so would be in violation with the California Dept. of Consumer Affairs (not to mention the state I practiced in) and would result in a fine and/or revocation of my license.

Can an attorney get away with it? Can an individual file a complaint with the California bar, even if the case doesn't affect them?
I should have added: that the attorney in question is representing a client who lives in a 3rd state.
Slappy, it is my understanding that this attorney only has a state license in 1 stat and did not even attend an accredited university.
