Here’s what you need to know.Cynthia Marie Rodgers, 59, graduated from Capital Law School and intended to become a lawyer in Ohio. As part of her bar admission, she was required to pass a character and fitness review, which is typical for aspiring lawyers to ensure they have good character to practice law.that her bar admission be denied. The reason? The Court said Rodgers did not have the requisite character or fitness to practice law.
Rodgers told the Court she is disabled and only can work part time. She is enrolled in an income-driven repayment plan, which enables her pay a monthly student loan payment based on her discretionary income. Rodgers told the Court that she expects that her student loans will either be forgiven or she will pay for the remainder of her life.
Not exactly. Naturally, most recent law school graduates have student loan debt when they apply for bar admission. If student loans would disqualify a prospective lawyer, then many new law school graduates would not become members of a state bar. That said, fitness and moral character are important components for bar admission.
I am looking for a new role and would appreciate your support. Thank you in advance for any connections, advice, or opportunities you can offer.
They are really on the edge, now that Yang dropped out!
Sounds like they made some poor choices.
D*m
Some people make better decisions than others. People making poor decisions need to deal with the consequences.
Insane
I worked in Financial Aid for 17 years. I know from experience that a great deal of student loan debt pays for cars, vacations and other unnecessary expenses. Even debt consolidation.
America!
MyFault
That’s almost enough to buy a math textbook at the bookstore
Idiots.
In total....so $900,000 divided by two is $450,000. Sounds like both of them have high degrees
That’s alot, they shouldn’t have taken so much, can they not add ? Hope that money bought them a good education which afforded them an equally good job.
No wonder American banks are thriving 🤔
I'm guessing it wasn't on accounting / economics or finance degrees. If so, worthy of refund.
LOL they deserve everything they get.
I’d like to see how much $ was spent on, no. Education related travel, housing,gifts & other non educational uses. I’d put that amount in “over half” range.
