“Admission on Motion” typically refers to the process by which an attorney licensed in one jurisdiction seeks admission to practice law in another jurisdiction without having to take the bar examination of that jurisdiction. It is also known as “admission without examination” or “reciprocity.” Admission on motion is a more streamlined and efficient way to resolve certain matters, saving time and resources for both the parties and the court.
The specific rules and procedures for admission on motion can vary depending on the jurisdiction and the type of case. It is required to consult the relevant rules of civil procedure or local court rules to understand the requirements and procedures for making motions in a particular jurisdiction.
Remember that admission on motion is not suitable for all types of issues or cases, and some matters may still require a full hearing or trial for resolution. It’s always advisable to seek legal advice from an attorney familiar with the jurisdiction and area of law.
In the law of the United States, admission on motion refers to a procedure by which an attorney admitted to practice in one state or territory may obtain access to practice in another state or territory without having to sit for the other jurisdiction’s bar examination.
In Canada, the term “admission on motion” may not be a standard legal term, and the procedures for making motions can vary depending on the jurisdiction (province or territory) and the specific rules of court that apply.
