       This letter acknowledges receipt of your Application for Pro Hac Vice admission and serves as
       your Proof of Payment of Fee.

       Filing the Application for Pro Hac Vice Admission and fee is the mandatory first step in your
       request for permission to participate in proceedings in a Texas Court. The next step is to file a
       sworn motion, in compliance with Rule XIX of the current Rules Governing Admission to the.
       Bar of Texas, in the Texas Court in which you request to participate, which must be
       accompanied by this acknowledgment letter. The decision to grant or deny your application is
       ultimately made by the Texas Court in which you request to participate.
