CHARLESTON (AP) â Lawyers being admitted to practice in West Virginia would recite a pledge of civility under a proposal by the state Supreme Court.
Supreme Court Chief Justice Evan Jenkins signed an order Monday that would put the proposal out for public comment, the court said in a news release. The court will review the comments and decide on final adoption.
Jenkins said it s another step the court is taking to improve the practice of law in the state. Among those taking the expanded oath Monday were the court s justices, West Virginia State Bar President Tom Scarr and Jason Pizatella, president of the state Board of Law Examiners.
