Attorney Admissions Ceremonies

Does a new attorney in your firm need to get sworn in to the District?  Ceremonies are held at the Kansas City, Missouri  courthouse on a monthly basis.  In order to attend a swearing-in ceremony, admission paperwork and the associated fee must be submitted to Jeri Russel, Attorney Admissions, the month prior to the ceremony you wish to attend.  A sponsor, who is an active member of the WDMO, is required to attend the ceremony with the petitioner.  Admission paperwork may be obtained at the WDMO website located at http://www.mow.uscourts.gov/admissions.html .  Please remember to submit a CM/ECF application as well.
