Supreme Court of South Carolina
In the Matter of Anonymous Applicant for Admission to the South Carolina Bar
June 29, 2022
Summary
The Supreme Court of South Carolina granted the applicant’s petition for admission but imposed a one‑year delay because the applicant repeatedly provided false or misleading information on his law‑school application and on a LinkedIn profile. The Court held that such nondisclosure falls within Rule 402(e) of the SC Rules of Professional Conduct and that a delay is the appropriate sanction. The decision also reminds the applicant of his ongoing duty to keep his bar application current.
