I think Mr. Kakish's desire to be a lawyer is long shot. Besides his less than perfect financial history and telling the press he was an attoney before taking the bar exam, life just threw him a curve ball. Seems like the Superior Court Judges added a few other requirements in order to be admitted to the bar which includes 'fitness to practice law.'
This interview in which 'Joe doesn't know' wasn't very good 'lawyering skills', was it. Can you imagine the members of the Bar Examing Committee watching this disastrous interview and picturing what this guy would be like in a court room? I dunno, but call it a hunch but I'll bet ya 1 cent his name won't be posted as one of those passing the bar exam.
But it's okay, because if he does by miracle ever pass the bar but gets denied because of the errors of Brad Kendell and the PoJo News and Jim Langan he can reapply to be admitted. But he'll have to take the bar exam again. Better start studying!!!!!
