Syllabus

Denial of pro hac vice motion; Gov.Bar R. XII; factors for trial court to review; decision to deny the motion lacked any rationale; failure to apply factors; abuse of discretion; judgment reversed and remanded. Appellants appealed the trial court's denial of their three motions for pro hac vice admission. Upon review we find the trial court failed to support its decision with any rationale and failed to apply any the nine factors appellate courts instruct trial courts to use when reviewing motions for pro hac vice. The trial court's failure to support its decision constitutes an abuse of discretion. Judgment reversed and matter remanded.
