Plaintiff,
ORDER DENYING PRO
HAC VICE APPLICATIONS
OF ATTORNEYS GALVIN B.
KENNEDY, MARSHALL M.
HOGG, AND JEFFREY B.
MORGANROTH

v.
TITLE SOURCE, INC.,
Defendant.
/

The pro hac vice applications of Attorneys Galvin B. Kennedy, Marshall M. Hogg, and

16

Jeffrey B. Morganroth (Dkt. Nos. 18, 19, 22) are DENIED for failing to comply with Local Rule

17

11-3. The local rule requires that an applicant certify that “he or she is an active member in good

18

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

19

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

20

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

21

“the bar of Texas” — is inadequate under the local rule because it fails to identify a specific

22

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

23

processed until a corrected form is submitted.

24
25

IT IS SO ORDERED.
