gested that the rules be so amended as
to require practitioners coming from some
Other jurisdiction To acquire residence
in the District equal in length of time
to that with which an attorney going
from this jurisdiction to some of the
states would be required to comply
For years past the custom in the Dis
trict has been to admit attorneys coming
here from other States to practice before
the local courts simply on the motion Of
any reputable local practitioner. II IS
said, however. that attorneys going from
the District TO other jurisdictions are not
shown this courtesy in all States In
many of them this courtesy is accorded
the members of the local bar. but in 9TH

states a residence of as many as seven
years is required, while in others il ranges
from one to five years. After considcra-
bic discussion final action was postponed
