Ward v. Figure Lending, LLC

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF NORTH CAROLINA
CHARLOTTE DIVISION
CASE NO. 3:24-CV-533-FDW-DCK
THIS MATTER IS BEFORE THE COURT on Movant E. Adam Webb’s “Motion For
Special Admission” (Document No. 3) filed June 17, 2024. This motion has been referred to the
undersigned Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b), and immediate review is
appropriate. Having carefully considered the motion and the record, the undersigned will deny the
motion.
Movant seeks to appear before this Court on behalf of Plaintiff pursuant to Local Rule
83.1(b)(2), without associating local counsel. Plaintiff has filed a “Class Action Complaint”
(Document No. 1) against Figure Lending, LLC.
This Court generally prefers that attorneys who are not admitted to this Court associate
local counsel and seek admission pro hac vice. See LCvR 83.1(b)(1). The undersigned will
respectfully decline to diverge from that more common method of appearance in this instance.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that Movant E. Adam Webb’s “Motion For Special
Admission” (Document No. 3) is DENIED.
