Nearly 600 will be admitted to practice law in Ohio during two special public sessions of the Ohio Supreme Court.

Nearly 600 new lawyers will walk across the stage Nov. 13 to receive their law certificates and be admitted to practice law in Ohio during two special Supreme Court sessions at the Palace Theatre in Columbus.

Ohio Supreme Court Chief Justice Maureen O’Connor will administer the oath of office to applicants who were successful on their July Ohio bar examination and who have satisfied all of the Supreme Court’s other requirements for admission. About 70 percent of those who sat for the July exam received a passing score. Seventy-nine percent of the first-time test takers passed.

View a complete list of those who passed the July bar exam.

Justice Terrence O’Donnell will give both keynote speeches during the bar admissions ceremonies, which begin at 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m.

The ceremony will be streamed live on the Supreme Court’s website.
