(a) Definitions.

(1) “Applicant” means a member of the bar of any state, district or

territory of the United Stated applying for admission pro hac vice.

(2) “Local counsel” means an active member of the Wyoming State Bar.

(3) “Rule 8” means Rule 8 of the Rules Governing the Wyoming State bar

and the Authorized Practice of Law.

(b) Members of the bar of any other state, district or territory of the United

States may apply for admission pro hac vice. An active member of the Wyoming

State Bar, in compliance with Rule 8, must move a Wyoming trial court to allow

the applicant to appear in a specific matter in a Wyoming trial court.

(c) Unless otherwise ordered, a motion to appear pro hac vice may be

granted only if the applicant complies with Rule 8 and associates with local

counsel, who must participate in the preparation and trial of the case to the

extent required by the court. The applicant must also be a member in good

standing of the bar of another jurisdiction.

(d) Applicants consent to the exercise of disciplinary jurisdiction by the

court over any alleged misconduct which occurs during the progress of the case

in which the attorney so admitted participates.

(e) Prior to filing any pleadings or other documents, an entry of appearance

and certificate of compliance with Rule 8 must be filed in the clerk’s office by

local counsel.

(f) Local counsel will perform the following duties:

(1) move the applicant’s admission at the commencement of the first

hearing to be held before the court;

(2) sign the first pleading filed and continue in the case unless another

local counsel is substituted;

(3) be present in court during all proceedings in connection with the case,

unless excused, and have full authority to act for and on behalf of the client

in all matters, including pretrial conferences, as well as trial or any other

hearings.

(g) Any notice, pleading or other paper must be served upon all counsel of

record, including local counsel, whenever possible, but it will be sufficient for

purposes of notice if service of any motion, pleading, order, notice, or any other

paper is served only upon local counsel, who will assume responsibility for

advising the applicant of any such service. If the court orders or the parties

stipulate, service of any notice, pleading, or other paper may be made directly

upon the applicant at the business address of the applicant.

(h) For each case in which they are admitted or seek admission pro hac vice,

and pursuant to Rule 8, applicants must follow the procedures set out in Rule

8(c).
