ORDER
W. CARLETON METCALF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
This matter is before the court on the Motion for Admission Pro Hac Vice and Affidavit (Doc. 21) filed by Gary W. Jackson. The Motion indicates that Mr. Jackson, a member in good standing of the Bar of this Court, is local counsel for Plaintiff and that he seeks the admission of Francis C. Trapp, who the Motion represents as being a member in good standing of the Bar of South Carolina. It further appears that the requisite admission fee has been paid.
The Motion states that the request is opposed. Doc. 21 at 2. However, as no defendant has made an appearance in this matter and as the Motion is not accompanied by a certificate of service, the identities of any opposing counsel are not shown on the record and it is not apparent that any such attorneys have received appropriate notice of the Motion.
Accordingly, the Motion for Admission Pro Hac Vice and Affidavit (Doc. 21) is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
It is so ordered.
