A motion to appear pro hac vice must be filed electronically. The Court will no longer accept these motions in paper format, except in sealed and multidistrict litigation (MDL) cases.  Additional information about, and instructions for filing for, pro hac vice admission is available on our website.

Except in sealed and MDL cases, the filing fee must be paid online using Pay.gov. In sealed cases only, payment can be made by mail or in person at the Clerk’s Office at the time of submitting the paper motion. There is no fee for pro hac vice admission in MDL cases

If the motion is granted, the attorney will be instructed to register for a login and password. The attorney may use the login and password only in the particular cases where the attorney has been admitted pro hac vice and these CM/ECF credentials remain active only while the case remains pending, including while on appeal.
