It was cool when California allowed otherwise qualified people like Kim Kardashian to become a lawyer with no law school. But now it’s out of control, say many lawyers with colossal student debt who worked hard to get their law license! Members of the public may feel differently. But recent changes are afoot, and many with a California JD are not having it, not even close! In 2021, public comments and news broke that California would soon become the largest state in the country to let novices provide limited legal services and even become part owners in a law practice.

An Established Jurist Who Upholds The Constitution May Be In Store For Us? With all of the discussion over the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, one element has been lacking from media coverage on the Supreme Court. There is a distinctly human element in between all of the debates. The battle isn’t really over the qualifications. The left wants a Marxist-leaning justice who will outlaw private ownership of firearms and declare that there are zero sexual differences between males and females.
