Bar Examination Sample Clauses
The Bar Examination clause defines the requirements and procedures related to the professional licensing exam for lawyers. It typically outlines eligibility criteria, application processes, and the standards candidates must meet to sit for and pass the bar exam, such as educational prerequisites or character assessments. This clause ensures that only qualified individuals are permitted to practice law, thereby maintaining professional standards and protecting the public from unqualified practitioners.
Bar Examination. A law school graduate will not be discharged solely for a first failure to pass the bar examination. TLDEF will provide one (1) month paid time off for those taking the bar for a second time. In the event a law graduate fails to pass the bar examination upon the second attempt, they will be transferred to an existing and open bargaining unit non-attorney position. The vacant non-attorney position must be one that the law school graduate meets the list of qualifications for as outlined in the job description. If the law school graduate is successful in passing the bar examination on a third attempt, upon admission to the bar, they will have recall rights to the job from which they were terminated for one (1) year following their date of termination, subject to hiring needs. Staff Attorneys who are rehired after passing the bar examination following termination after two bar failures will be given service credit for each month actually worked as a law school graduate prior to termination.
