REMOTE FRIENDLY CJA APPEALS PANELS
Posted: Tue Sep 26, 2023 6:08 am
I live out of state due to family commitments, limiting my practice to federal law. I'm already admitted to a few federal appeals (CJA Panels) that allow non-residents, and attendance is only required for occasional oral arguments.
Does anyone know of federal courts with CJA panels that don't require in-state residency? (Though the residency requirement may be unconstitutional, it's enforced by some courts.)
Additionally, if the court doesn't demand local sponsors who are already admitted, that would be a plus. Finding such sponsors as an out-of-state attorney is very challenging.
If you're aware of federal courts with accessible appeals panels, please share their names. Given the need for these positions, it's surprising that there isn't a database with this information.
