The Ohio Supreme Court today considered four requests for permission to practice law in Ohio.
In unanimous per curiam opinions, the Supreme Court:
Allowed a Strongsville man to seek admission pending his graduation from law school and passage of the bar exam.
Permanently barred a Mayfield Heights man from practicing law in Ohio because he lied about his criminal past and other dishonest conduct on multiple law-school applications and applications to take the bar exam in Ohio and Florida.
Rejected admission of a Wayne, Pennsylvania, man because of misrepresentations about his past, including termination from a law firm after admittedly sending “pretty graphic” text messages to a secretary at the firm.
