Obama for Attorney General.

I’ve had law licenses in 3 states. When I left LA in 2002 I stopped practicing law in LA as well and placed my license in inactive status. I live in the DC suburbs for 11 years practicing in MD and DC. When I returned to LA I requested reinstatement. I also placed my MD and DC licenses in inactive status. Were I to return there, I’d simply request reinstatement. There’s no need to retake the bar exam.

I do have to take the bar to enter other jurisdictions like TX and MD because when I moved to TX in the 90s I’d not been practicing for 5 years and MD didn’t have a reciprocity provision so I had to take that bar exam as well.

It’s possible that under Illinois requirements going inactive for a certain amount of time causes you to have to resubmit an application for admission but retaking the bar exam would not be necessary. Originally Posted by 1blackman1

Ya I imagine you'd have to study up for a different state to catch the differences. But in general and common sense that you'd have over 20 years of experience it should come pretty easy. Even if you passed the bar you have changing laws every year to keep up on. Same with Taxes, new stuff every year.

Yeah, I hear you. It's easy to adapt. I'm not even an accountant and it only took me a few days to learn IFRS for my CPA license. To your point, things are pretty much the same if you've been doing something long enough. I don't care whether you are a mechanic, doctor or lawyer. Things change and you adapt accordingly. If you have been doing something long enough, there is a short lag time to educate yourself on the changes for your chosen path in life.

And speaking of adapting to changes, that dipshit in office didn't know how to adapt to shit. Oh well, later Trump.

No, not generally. It would depend on the jurisdiction though. Were I to take NYs for example I’d likely need to study a bit because there’s some significant difference in their state specific laws and handling of specific common law concepts.

Generally though I could probably sit down and take most states bars with minimal effort. Texas and MD were pretty simple but I was also a very young lawyer at the time and a lot of general areas were still pretty fresh to me. I suspect the response to a riparian rights question wouldn’t immediately jump out at me today though it might be a few questions on the bar exam.

No need to take the bar again. He would just request reinstatement. Originally Posted by 1blackman1

Per the Illinois bar website - An inactive lawyer may resume active status by submitting written or online notification of the intent to do so, and by paying the balance of the fee active lawyers must pay for the registration year in which active status is resumed. Inactive lawyers are also subject to a $25.00 per month late fee if registering late.

A retired lawyer may resume active status by submitting written or online notification of the intent to do so, and by paying full active fees for the registration year in question and for every other year in which the lawyer was registered as retired.

Don't get your hopes up. Obama doesn't have any Investigative or Court Room experience. If Obama became AG it would just be to make sure stupid Joe Biden didn't get his ass indicted. Pretty much what Holder did for him. The Liberal Democrat in politics is nothing but a criminal.

I never said I wanted him to be AG. Maybe you’re thinking of someone else. I only commented that he would not have to retake the bar.
