Each person who is admitted to practice as an attorney in this State must complete, within 18 months after that person's license is issued, any practical skills course approved by the board. This period may be enlarged by a Justice of the Supreme Judicial Court on motion for good cause shown during that period. [RR 2021, c. 1, Pt. B, §24 (COR).] If an attorney fails to complete this course within the time allowed, the board shall notify the Supreme Judicial Court and the Board of Overseers of the Bar that the attorney's license is invalid and continued practice of law is unauthorized under section 807. [PL 1985, c. 124, §7 (NEW).] An attorney who loses that attorney's license under this section must be readmitted after notifying the Supreme Judicial Court and the Board of Overseers of the Bar of that attorney's later compliance with this section. [RR 2021, c. 1, Pt. B, §24 (COR).]
