Bar Passage for USAO offices
I know that certain CA USAO Offices require that you pass the CA bar. Are other USAO offices the same way? For example, DC or EDNY?

Re: Bar Passage for USAO offices
SDNY and EDNY only require bar membership. It doesn't have to be NY.
DC also only requires bar membership. It doesn't have to be DC - although if you're a member of a bar, you can waive into DC pretty easily.
CD California requires CA bar membership. NDCA does not.
District of South Carolina requires SC bar membership.
I think there's one district in Florida that requires Florida bar membership.
There are some U.S. District Courts in the country where the rules of the court require that a person be a member of that state's bar to be admitted to practice in the federal court. That's what's going on when a USAO require membership in the state's bar in order to apply.

How do you know the SDNY USAO doesn't require NY admission? Do you just file a pro hac vice motion every time you appear?Anonymous User wrote:SDNY and EDNY only require bar membership. It doesn't have to be NY.
