The Military Affairs Committee has written a new rule that will be sent up to the Supreme Court January 1 for approval that will allow lawyer spouses of military personnel stationed in Florida to practice in the state upon approval. According to a Report From The Florida Bar Board of Governors, “Those conditions include being a member in good standing in another jurisdiction with a clear record, passing a Florida Board of Bar Examiners character and fitness review, paying Bar annual membership fees, agreeing to follow Bar rules, being subject to Florida Supreme Court jurisdiction, and having a Bar member as a mentor if the spouse has been practicing for less than three years.”
