Application For Admission To Practice With Instructions

APPLICATION FOR ADMISSION TO PRACTICE (THIRD CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS). Admission to this Court’s bar may be by mail on written motion or in open court pursuant to the provisions of Third Circuit Local Appellate Rule 46.1(c) and (d). The completed application serves as the motion for admission. An attorney who has been admitted to practice in the Supreme Court of the United States, any United States Court of Appeals, any United States District Court, the District Court of the Virgin Islands, or the highest court of a state, and whose private and professional character is good, may be admitted to practice in this Court upon motion of a member of this Court’s bar. In the event that the applicant does not have a member of this Court’s bar to sponsor the admission, the applicant may check the box requesting that one of the attorneys employed by the Circuit Clerk’s Office act as a sponsor. Such sponsorship is based solely on the certificate of good standing provided by the applicant. Local Appellate Rule 46.1 requires that an applicant be familiar with the contents of the (1) Federal Rules of Civil, Criminal, and Appellate Procedure and (2) the Third Circuit Local Appellate Rules (“LARs”) and Internal Operating Procedures (“IOPs”). The applicant must attest that he or she has read and understands those rules and in particular the provisions of the rules dealing with briefs, motions, and appendices. www.FormsWorkflow.com
