There is no definite answer about this. It would be up to the judge to determine whether this would be allowed. This person could certainly be there in support and sit in the closest available audience seat (assuming the judge doesn't close the court) and hold whatever materials you might need. The judge would only decide whether this person could actually sit with you at the table.
