The Florida Bar has filed a motion for rehearing requesting that we reconsider their suggestion that Rule of Judicial Administration 2.060(b) be amended to specify that foreign lawyers admitted on a temporary basis in Florida must associate Florida counsel. The Bar asserts that this amendment is necessary to avoid conflict with Florida Bar Integration Rule, Article 11(2). The Florida Bar further brings to our attention the possible confusion resulting from the double qualifier in paragraphs (b) and (d) of Rule of Judicial Administration 2.060.
We deny the request to require foreign lawyers admitted on a temporary basis to mandatorily associate Florida counsel. We find it more appropriate to leave such a requirement to the discretion of the court which has jurisdiction of the cause; the requirement may be imposed when that court finds it necessary.
We acknowledge the need to eliminate the double qualifier in Rule of Judicial Administration 2.060(b) and (d), and we recognize that Florida Bar Integration Rule, Article 11(2), should be amended to conform to the new Rule of Judicial Administration 2.060(b).
The appended amendments of Rule of Judicial Administration 2.060(b) and Florida Bar Integration Rule, Article 11(2), are *1028hereby adopted as revised and shall take effect upon the filing of this opinion.
It is so ordered.
