Hoping it isn't just a case of the webpage not being updated. At minimum, Rudy should be able to provide proof of his status to the judge and if not - the judge hands him his ass.

He’s a professional at it. Losing his Pro Hack license must be tough.....

pro hac vice
/ˌprō ˌhak ˈvīsē/
adverb
for or on this occasion only.

Oh. Never mind. Actually I didn’t know what it meant and sharing the definition.
