11th Cir. R. 46-1

Only attorneys admitted to the bar of this court may

practice before the court, except as otherwise provided in these rules. Admission is governed by

FRAP 46 and this Eleventh Circuit Rule, and attorneys must also meet the requirements of 11th Cir.

R. 46-7. To request admission to the bar, an attorney must complete an application form, available

on the court’s website. The application form must be accompanied by a certificate of good standing

issued within the previous six months establishing that the attorney is admitted to practice before a

court described in FRAP 46(a)(1). Upon admission, the attorney must pay the non-refundable

attorney admission fee, which is composed of: (1) the national admission fee prescribed by the

Judicial Conference of the United States in the Court of Appeals Miscellaneous Fee Schedule issued

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1913; and (2) the local admission fee prescribed pursuant to FRAP 46(a)(3)

and posted on the court’s website. Failure to pay the fee within 14 days of admission will require

that the attorney submit a new application form. All attorneys must apply for admission and submit

attorney admission fees through PACER.

Each member of the bar has a continuing obligation to keep this court informed of any

changes to addresses, phone numbers, fax numbers, and e-mail addresses.

The clerk is authorized to admit attorneys to the bar of this court in such circumstances as

determined by the court when the attorney has applied for admission, paid the required fee, and

otherwise meets the requirements for admission in FRAP 46 and the accompanying circuit rules.
