IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

EVANS ET AL,

Plaintiff,

 v.

ARIZONA CARDINALS FOOTBALL

CLUB LLC ET AL,

Defendant. /

No. C 16-01030 WHA

ORDER DENYING PRO HAC

VICE APPLICATION

The pro hac vice applications of Steven Silverman and Phillip James Closius are

DENIED for failing to comply with Civil Local Rule 11–3. The local rule requires that an

applicant certify that “he or she is an active member in good standing of the bar of a United

States Court or of the highest court of another State or the District of Columbia, specifying such

bar” (emphasis added). Filling out the pro hac vice form from the district court website such

that it only identifies the state of bar membership — such as “the bar of Texas” — is inadequate

under the local rule because it fails to identify a specific court (such as the Supreme Court of

Texas). While the application fees do not need to be paid again, the applications cannot be

processed until corrected forms are submitted.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
