Read a random definition: Batson challenge

A quick definition of integrated bar:

An integrated bar is a group of lawyers who are required by law to be members in order to practice law in a certain area. It's like a club for lawyers. There are also voluntary bars for lawyers with special interests or practices. The term "bar" can also refer to a courtroom railing or a legal barrier that prevents a claim or action. In patents and trademarks, a statutory bar prevents certain things from being patented or registered. To bar something means to legally prevent it from happening.

A more thorough explanation:

An integrated bar is a type of bar association in which membership is a legal requirement for practicing law. It is usually a statewide organization of lawyers in which membership is compulsory in order for a lawyer to have a law license. This means that all lawyers who want to practice law in that state must join the integrated bar.

For example, in California, the State Bar of California is an integrated bar. All lawyers who want to practice law in California must be members of the State Bar of California.

Integrated bars are different from voluntary bars, which are bar associations that lawyers do not need to join to practice law. They are also different from specialty bars, which are voluntary bar associations for lawyers with special interests, specific backgrounds, or common practices.

texaslawhopefully

texaslawhopefully

I want to clerk, and Cornell has a 5 percent clerk rate

texaslawhopefully

Fed clerk

texaslawhopefully

20:23

Chicago is at 25 percent. It’s just such a massive difference I don’t think it’s worth it to go elsewhere besides HYSC and maybe UVA

ImpartialLion

20:26

That makes sense. Was looking into Cornell clerking stats https://www.lawschool.cornell.edu/careers/judicial-clerkships/

ImpartialLion

20:27

U kno even tho their circuit numbers don't compare to other schools, those #s are better than expected tbh

ImpartialLion

20:27

40-50 fed clerks is pretty cool

texaslawhopefully

20:29
