Preface. In setting forth the rules relating to admission to the bar of the United States Courts and the Courts of the several States and Territories, we have given the general requirements, rather than the forms prescribed in applying for examination and admission. Reference is made in each instance to the publications in which the rules are set forth in full. In most states pamphlets containing complete rules, forms to be used, etc., may be obtained from the clerk of court or the secretary of the Board of Bar Examiners. In this edition we have added information as to the times and places of examinations and the person to whom application must be made. We have also added valuable information in regard to the local Reports of each State, and other law books, especially valuable to the lawyer opening a new office. (iii)* |
