Pro Hac Vice

Pursuant to District Local Rule 83.4(e), an attorney may apply for pro hac vice admission to appear and participate in a specific case in the District of Idaho.  The attorney seeking pro hac vice admission must be sponsored by an attorney admitted to practice before the Court.

The sponsoring attorney must first enter his/her appearance in the case, or file a Complaint to open the case, and then will enter a Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission on behalf of the attorney seeking admission, using the Pro Hac Vice Admission Form located below.  The Pro Hac Vice Admission Form will be attached to the motion instead of a typical pleading.  There is a fee of $250 per application, which will be charged as part of the motion event in CM/ECF.  You must file one motion/application per attorney applying for pro hac vice admission in each case.

Upon approval of the motion, the pro hac attorney will be required to register for an ECF account with the District of Idaho.  However, if that attorney has registered as a pro hac attorney in a prior case, he or she will not need to register again.
