IN THE SUPREME COURT OF PENNSYLVANIA WESTERN DISTRICT
IN THE MATTER OF: MEAGAN HART, : No. 14 WM 2025 ESQUIRE MOTION FOR EXTENSION : PURSUANT TO RULE 311(G) : : : :
DISSENTING STATEMENT
JUSTICE WECHT
I note my dissent from the Court’s decision to grant the Motion for Extension of
Admission to Practice Law Pursuant to Pa.B.A.R. 311(g). I remain in the same position I
expressed in my Dissenting Statement filed at 101 WM 2024 (attached as Exhibit A) and
my Dissenting Statement to the grant of reconsideration filed at 5 WM 2025 (attached as
Exhibit B).
Pa.B.A.R. 311(g) provides that extensions may be granted to the limited admission
available pursuant to Rule 311 “for good cause shown.” “Good cause” in these
circumstances must demonstrate why the attorney could not obtain admission to the
Pennsylvania bar within the thirty-month limited admission that Rule 311 provides. As in
the prior cases, I would uphold that requirement here and deny the motion. [14 WM 2025] - 2 [14 WM 2025] - 3 [14 WM 2025] - 4
