Applications for Admission on Motion, Fees

activein force · 2026-08-12 – presentact-effective-date

(a) All applicants for admission on motion shall complete an application

prescribed by the Board and shall submit to a character investigation performed by or for the NCBE. Completed applications are to be filed with the

Clerk of the Court. Incomplete applications will not be accepted for filing.

(1) a questionnaire and affidavit for applicants seeking admission on

motion prescribed or approved by the Board.

(2) a character investigation performed by or for the National Conference

of Bar Examiners, and

(b) The application prescribed by the Board shall be submitted with all

supporting data required by the Board to determine eligibility under Rule 302.

Supporting data to the application shall include the following:

(i) A certificate of good standing from the highest court for the jurisdiction

in which the applicant is currently practicing law issued within the last 90

days;

(ii) An authorization and release form; and

(iii) Proof the applicant has passed the MPRE with a scaled score of 85

points or greater (75 points or greater for MPREs administered between

January 1, 1999, and October 1, 2014). If the date of the applicant’s first

admission in any jurisdiction was prior to 1999, a certification by the

applicant that the applicant obtained a passing score on the MPRE in

connection with that admission will suffice.

(c) The Board shall, in each case, give consideration to such evidence of

moral character it has required along with the character report by the NCBE

and shall make independent inquiry and investigation as to the applicant’s

moral character and fitness to be a member of the Bar. The Committee may at

its discretion, hold further proceedings with the applicant as described in

Section IV and shall thereafter report to the Court the results of its findings,

together with its recommendation. The Court may on its own motion make

such further inquiry and investigation as it deems proper.

(d) Applications for admission on motion shall be filed with the Clerk of the

Court and shall be accompanied by a fee established by the Board and the

Court together with a copy of the applicant’s Request for Preparation of a

Character Report to the NCBE. Refunds will not be made in the event an

applicant is found ineligible for admission on motion nor in the event of

withdrawal of an application. Incomplete applications will not be accepted for

filing. Additional investigation fees may be required by the Board, including

but not limited to, the expenses necessary for the Board and/or the Committee

to obtain records and documents and the fee necessary to pay the services of an

investigator, if deemed of assistance to the Board and/or Committee.

(e) The Board shall notify the Court of a motion applicant’s eligibility for

admission after the Committee has made its recommendation regarding the

applicant’s good moral character and fitness to practice law.

(f) The Court shall notify each applicant of the applicant’s admission status

upon receipt of the Board’s and the Committee’s recommendations regarding

the applicant’s eligibility for admission.
