In the case Mugnolo v. R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, a lawyer was granted permission to participate in the case even though they are not licensed in this jurisdiction, a status known as 'pro hac vice.' This allows the attorney to represent their client in this specific case despite not being locally admitted to the bar. This step is important to ensure the client has the legal representation they want, even if their lawyer is from another area.
