ORDER DENYING PRO
HAC VICE APPLICATIONS

No. C 16-00035WHA

The pro hac vice applications of Attorney Nathan A. Shev (Dkt. No. 16) and Attorney

17

Eamon P. Kelley (Dkt. No. 17) are DENIED for failing to comply with Local Rule 11-3. The

18

local rule requires that an applicant certify that “he or she is an active member in good standing

19

of the bar of a United States Court or of the highest court of another State or the District of

20

Columbia, specifying such bar” (emphasis added). Filling out the pro hac vice form from the

21

district court website such that it only identifies the state of bar membership — such as “the bar

22

of Illinois” — is inadequate under the local rule because it fails to identify a specific court.

23

While the application fee does not need to be paid again, the application cannot be processed

24

until a corrected form is submitted.

26

IT IS SO ORDERED.
