`
`INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICANTS
`The attorney seeking to appear pro hac vice must complete Section I of this Application, personally sign, in ink, the certification in
`(1)
`Section II, and have the designated Local Counsel sign in Section III. ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES ARE NOT ACCEPTED.
`Space to supplement responses is provided in Section IV. The applicant must also attach a Certificate of Good Standing (issued
`within the last 30 days) from every state bar to which he or she is admitted; failure to do so will be grounds for denying the
`Application. Scan the completed Application with its original ink signature, together with any attachment(s), to a single Portable
`Document Format (PDF) file.
`Have the designated Local Counsel file the Application electronically (using the Court's CM/ECF System), attach a Proposed Order
`(using Form G-64 ORDER, available from the Court's website), and pay the required $325 fee online at the time of filing (using a
`credit card). The fee is required for each case in which the applicant files an Application. Failure to pay the fee at the time of filing
`will be grounds for denying the Application. Out-of-state federal government attorneys are not required to pay the $325 fee.
`(Certain attorneys for the United States are also exempt from the requirement of applying for pro hac vice status. See L.R. 83-2.1.4.)
`A copy of the G-64 ORDER in Word or WordPerfect format must be emailed to the generic chambers email address. L.R. 5-4.4.2.

`will be associated with your case. Pursuant to Local Rule 5-3.2.3, registering as a CM/ECF User is deemed consent, for purposes of Fed. R. Civ.

`electronic service at any time; simply complete and return a Central District Electronic Service Exemption Form (Form G-05, available from
`the Court's website). If the Court receives an Electronic Service Exemption Form from you, you will no longer receive notice by e-mail when

`through the mail.
