May 14, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 11 ORDER re: Motion for Leave to Appeal Pro Hac Vice. [ # 6 ] Attorney Pat Quinn moves to appear pro hac vice, but does not explain why he has not moved for admission to practice in this court. Pursuant to Circuit Rule 46, the lead attorney for any party represented by counsel or who orally argues an appeal must be admitted to practice in this court. Instructions for applying for admission and the application form are available on this courts website at www.ca7.uscourts.gov/forms. Quinn appears to be eligible for admission based on the information in his motion. Accordingly, the motion to appear pro hac vice is DENIED without prejudice. Quinn is advised to apply for admission to the Seventh Circuit. He may renew his motion to appear pro hac vice, but must explain why he seeks that relief instead of applying for admission.
