Plaintiffs move for the admission of Abha Khanna to practice before this Court in this case with Peter M. Meloy to act as local counsel. Ms. Khanna's application appears to be in order.
Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiffs' motion to admit Abha Khanna pro hac vice (Doc. 4) is GRANTED on the condition that pro hac counsel shall do his or her own work. This means that pro hac counsel must do his or her own writing; sign his or her own pleadings, motions, and briefs; and appear and participate personally. Counsel shall take steps to register in the Court's electronic filing system ("CM-ECF"). Further information is available on the Court's website, www.mtd.uscourts.gov, or from the Clerk's Office.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this Order is subject to withdrawal unless pro hac counsel, within fifteen (15) days of the date of this Order, files a notice acknowledging counsel's admission under the terms set forth above. In that notice, counsel shall also designate a single attorney with the authority to make any and all decisions related to the administration of this case as the primary point of contact for the opposing party.
