TIME WARNER CABLE INC.,

Plaintiff,

 v.

KUDELSKI SA,

Defendants. /

No. C 16-02433 WHA

ORDER DENYING PRO

HAC VICE APPLICATION

OF ATTORNEYS MICHAEL

BRODY AND JOSHUA L.

COLLINS

The pro hac vice applications of Attorney Michael Brody (Dkt. No. 18) and Attorney

Joshua L. Collins (Dkt. No. 19) are DENIED for failing to comply with 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. While

the application fee does not need to be paid again, the application cannot be processed until a

corrected form is submitted.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: May 24, 2016. WILLIAM ALSUP
