1Opinion of the Court
LEWIS R. MORGAN, Circuit Judge:
Petitioner Wilson Evans, II, filed motions in the Southern District of Mississippi seeking the court’s permission to allow attorney Michael S. Fawer to appear pro hac vice to represent Evans in a criminal tax evasion case. Judge William Harold Cox denied the motion. Evans comes to this court seeking a writ of mandamus compelling Judge Cox to grant the motion. Concluding that it was outside of the discretion of Judge Cox to deny the motion, we order that a writ of mandamus issue in this case compelling Judge Cox to grant petitioner’s motion.
