Summary

The court amended Rule 6-10.3(d) to prohibit approval of continuing legal education courses that use quotas based on specified characteristics in selecting faculty or participants. The court concluded that such quotas are inconsistent with basic nondiscrimination principles and directed The Florida Bar to revise its policies accordingly, while making the amendment immediately effective prospectively.
