A quick definition of admission to practice law:

Admission to practice law means becoming a lawyer. This happens when a person passes a test and is accepted by a group of lawyers called a state bar association. It's like getting a license to be a lawyer. Sometimes, a lawyer from another state can also become a lawyer in a new state without taking the test again. When someone applies for a patent, they may have to admit that someone else already knew about the invention. This is called an admission of prior art.

A more thorough explanation:

Admission to practice law refers to the process of becoming a licensed lawyer. This involves being accepted by the established licensing authority, such as a state bar association, as a member of the practicing bar. This usually happens after passing a bar examination and supplying adequate character references.

For example, John graduated from law school and passed the state bar examination. He then applied for admission to practice law and was accepted by the state bar association.

There are different types of admission to practice law, such as:

  • Admission on motion: This is the permanent admission of a lawyer who is in good standing in the bar of a different state without the need for a full bar examination.
  • Admission pro hac vice: This is the temporary admission of an out-of-jurisdiction lawyer to practice before a court in a specified case or set of cases.

Overall, admission to practice law is an important step for lawyers to be able to legally represent clients and practice law in their jurisdiction.
