UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

On April 28, 2015, the Court granted the pro hac vice petitions of attorneys Shanon Carson, 

Russell Paul and Glen Abramson submitted applications to appear pro hac vice for Plaintiff. (Doc. 14) 

The Court granted the petitions despite that each had designated Jonathan Shub—a non-California 

lawyer—as counsel with whom the Court and opposing counsel may readily communicate. (Doc.10 at 

2; Doc. 11 at 2; Doc. 12 at 2) Though counsel each represented that Mr. Shub is a member of this 

Court, he is not. (Doc. 18) Thus, none of the petitions should have been granted given they failed to 

comply with Local Rule 180(b)(2)(ii). 

Within 14 days, attorneys Shanon Carson, Russell Paul and Glen Abramson SHALL show 

cause in writing why their pro hac vice status should not be revoked.
