Text

(a) The Board may, for good cause shown by clear and convincing evidence,

waive any rule or approval required from the Board which relates to the

admission to the practice of law in Wyoming; provided, however, the Board

shall not waive statutory requirements or filing fees, nor shall the Board waive

the required passing scores on the MPRE or UBE. The decision of the Board

not to waive a rule may be appealed to the Court. The appeal shall be filed with

the Clerk of the Court within 15 days of the date of the notice of denial. The

appeal shall be conducted on the basis of the record compiled before the Board,

and the applicant shall be limited to a written argument in support of the

appeal.

(b) The Wyoming Supreme Court is the final authority as to whether an

applicant may be admitted to the practice of law in Wyoming. The Court may,

under circumstances it deems sufficient, waive any requirement related to the

admission to the practice of law in the State of Wyoming.
