Can I file as a PHV attorney when my bar membership in this Court is not in good standing due to my Florida Bar membership either being suspended or otherwise being designated as not eligible to practice law in Florida?

Answer: 

No. Rule 4(b)(1) of the Rules Governing the Admission, Practice, Peer Review, and Discipline
of Attorneys prohibits attorneys seeking admission pro hac vice while also being admitted
to practice in the Southern District of Florida. Furthermore, Rule 3 indicates that
“Attorneys who are not in good standing of the bar of this Court may not practice before the Court.”
