W.D. Ky. LR 83.2
Permission to Practice in a Particular Case
(a) Procedure. An attorney who has not been admitted to the Bar of the Court
may represent parties before the Court if the attorney has paid the prescribed
pro hac vice admission fee to the Clerk of the Court, has been granted leave
by the Court to appear pro hac vice in a particular case, and pays any
applicable renewal fee. A separate motion for each attorney requesting pro
hac vice admission must include the following information:
(1) Admission Status. The motion must identify each Bar in which the
attorney is a member and include a statement indicating that the
attorney requesting admission is admitted to practice, currently in
active status, and in good standing as an attorney in another United
States court or the highest court of any state.
(2) Disciplinary History. The motion must disclose whether the
attorney is currently or has ever been disbarred, suspended from
practice, or subject to other disciplinary action by any court, Bar, or
other admitting or licensing authority.
(3) Consent to Jurisdiction. The motion must include a statement
indicating that the attorney consents to be subject to the jurisdiction
and rules of the Kentucky Supreme Court governing professional
conduct.
(4) ECF Training. The motion must identify the method of training
completed by the attorney before use of the Court’s electronic filing
system.
(b) The Attorney General or any other bar member of the Department of Justice,
or of any federal agency, including federal public defenders or panel
attorneys that cross district lines, or any attorney appointed pursuant to the
Criminal Justice Act, need not seek admission pro hac vice under this rule.
(c) Sanctions. Nothing in this rule detracts from the Court’s power to sanction
unprofessional conduct.
