What procedures do I need to follow to be sworn in as a member of the Bar of the District Court for the District of Utah if I was unable to attend the annual spring or fall joint admission ceremony for the Utah Supreme Court and the U.S. District Court?

Answer: 

SeeĀ attorney admissions. If you paid the active fees to the Utah State Bar, your name was placed on a motion for admission to the Court's Bar. Therefore, you do not need to obtain a sponsor provided that you are admitted to the Court's Bar within a year from the date of the joint admission ceremony. If you paid the inactive fees to the Utah State Bar, you do need to obtain a sponsor.
