Judge Sidney H. Stein grants David A. Rodkey pro hac vice admission in Nemazee case

The court granted a motion allowing attorney David A. Rodkey to appear pro hac vice on behalf of Hassan Nemazee. Judge Sidney H.

Stein signed the order on March 31, 2021. This procedural step permits Rodkey, who is not admitted to practice in this jurisdiction, to represent Nemazee in the case. The case remains active, but details on the underlying claims or parties beyond Nemazee are not publicly available.

The court has not disclosed the docket number or the specific court handling the matter. The pro hac vice admission signals that Nemazee has secured local counsel and is moving forward with legal representation. Judge Stein’s order does not address the merits of the case or any substantive motions.

It simply confirms that Rodkey meets the requirements to participate in the litigation despite lacking local bar admission. This development may precede further filings or motions now that Nemazee’s chosen counsel can formally appear. The case’s next steps will likely involve motions or pleadings filed by Rodkey or other counsel representing Nemazee.

The court’s docket should clarify the scope and nature of the dispute as it progresses.
