New attorneys will take the oath of office at the Palace Theatre this Tuesday.

A total of 629 successful bar admission applicants will participate in one of two special Court sessions Nov. 12 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 2019 Ohio bar examination and who have satisfied all of the Supreme Court’s requirements for admission. About 73 percent of those who sat for the July exam received a passing score. Eighty-two percent of the first-time test takers passed.

Justice Judith French 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.
