minord Minute Order Wed 03/22 7:48 AM
MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS of the Honorable Chief Judge Miranda M. Du on 3/22/2023. By Deputy Clerk: Peggie Vannozzi. On March 20, 2023, Gary M. Klinger submitted a petition for permission to practice (ECF No. 8 ("PHV")). In the PHV, Klinger identified cases during the last three years where he has appeared as counsel under Local Rule IA 11-2 as consisting of four cases, and a fifth case (Case No. 2:23-cv-304 ("Pending PHV") where his PHV is pending. (Id. at 3.) However, Judge Boulware approved the Pending PHV on March 16, 2023 (see ECF No. 18 in Case No. 2:23-cv-304-RFB-BNW). This means Klinger has appeared as local counsel under LR IA 11-2 in five cases. LR IA 11-2(f)(1) provides, in pertinent part, that "more than five appearances... in a three-year period is excessive use of this rule." Klinger is ordered to show cause as to why the Court should not deny his request under LR IA 11-2(f). Klinger's response to this order must be filed within seven days. Failure to comply will result in denial of Klinger's PHV. (no image attached) (Copies have been distributed pursuant to the NEF - PAV)
