IN RE: APPLICATION OF RANDY EDWARD PHIPPS, 1724 CONRIDGE DR., 
EDMOND, OK 73034 FOR SPECIAL TEMPORARY PERMIT TO PRACTICE LAW IN OKLAHOMA UNDER 
THE PROVISIONS OF RULE TWO, SECTION 5, OF THE RULES GOVERNING 
ADMISSION TO THE PRACTICE OF LAW IN OKLHOMA

ORDER
It appears from the Report and Recommendation of the Board of Bar Examiners 
of the State of Oklahoma that Randy ("Rand") Edward Phipps has heretofore 
submitted a Petition for a Special Temporary Permit to practice law in the State 
of Oklahoma, as provided by Rule Two, §5, of the Rules Governing Admission to 
the Practice of Law in the State of Oklahoma.
It further appears that the petitioner is employed by Mustang Fuel 
Corporation, that full time employment is devoted to said employer, and that the 
petitioner receives full compensation from such employment. No compensation for 
legal services is received from any source other than the said Mustang Fuel 
Corporation by which petitioner is employed. Petitioner was admitted to the 
Nebraska State Bar Association on November 27, 1981 and is an active member in 
good standing.
Pursuant to such Report and Recommendation, and for good cause shown, it is 
ORDERED that Randy ("Rand") Edward Phipps be granted a special temporary permit 
to practice law in the State of Oklahoma for the purpose of serving in the 
capacity above stated. Said permit will be valid for so long as petitioner is so 
employed and devotes full time employment to Mustang Fuel Corporation and 
receives compensation for legal services from no source other than the said 
employer. The right of Randy ("Rand") Edward Phipps to practice law in the State 
of Oklahoma shall ipso facto cease and terminate upon the termination of 
such employment or upon transfer outside the State of Oklahoma. It is the 
petitioner's obligation to advise the Oklahoma Bar Association if the employ of 
said office is terminated or is transferred by said employer out of the State of 
Oklahoma. The Special Temporary Permit shall be subject to Rule Ten which 
revokes the permit if petitioner takes the Oklahoma bar examination and fails 
the examination.
DONE BY ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT IN CONFERENCE this 1st day of July, 
2010.
