WESTERN DIVISION
JOE HAND PROMOTIONS, INC.
v.

PLAINTIFF
4:11CV00337-BRW

JOHN STACY TIDWELL, Individually
and d/b/a Robert’s Sports Bar & Grill

DEFENDANT
ORDER

Plaintiff’s Motion for Entry of Appearance Pro Hac Vice (Doc. No. 3) is DENIED
without prejudice.
Local Rule 83.5(d) requires that attorneys not admitted to practice in the Eastern District
of Arkansas “designate a member of the Bar of these Courts who maintains an office in Arkansas
for the practice of law with whom the court and opposing counsel may readily communicate
regarding the conduct of the case.” Plaintiff does not have local counsel.
Since Plaintiff’s counsel is not admitted to practice in the Eastern District of Arkansas, he
is directed to either enroll with the Clerk of the Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas or
obtain local counsel before refiling his motion to appear pro hac vice.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 31st day of May, 2011.
