JEDI TECHNOLOGIES, INC.,

ORDER DENYING PRO
HAC VICE APPLICATION

Defendant.
/

14
15

The pro hac vice application of Attorney Brian Haan (Dkt. No. 45) is DENIED for failing

16

to comply with Local Rule 11-3. The local rule requires that an applicant certify that “he or she

17

is an active member in good standing of the bar of a United States Court or of the highest court

18

of another State or the District of Columbia, specifying such bar” (emphasis added). Filling out

19

the pro hac vice form from the district court website such that it only identifies the state of bar

20

membership — such as “the bar of the State of Illinois” — is inadequate under the local rule

21

because it fails to identify a specific court. While the application fees do not need to be paid

22

again, the applications cannot be processed until corrected forms are submitted.

23
24

IT IS SO ORDERED.
