California bar: Illegal immigrant should get law license

Updated at 445 p.m. ET -- An illegal immigrant applying for a law license in California should be allowed to receive it, the State Bar of California argues in a filing to the state Supreme Court.

Sergio Garcia, 35, of Chico, Calif., has met the rules for admission, including passing the bar exam and the moral character review, and his lack of legal status in the United States should not automatically disqualify him, the Committee of Bar Examiners said Monday.

“ … Mr. Garcia’s status in the United States, should not, ipso facto, be grounds for excluding him from law licensure. He has met all of the prescribed qualifications and there is no reason to believe he cannot take the oath and faithfully uphold his duties as an attorney,” the bar said.

Garcia's father is a naturalized citizen, according to the bar, and Garcia is waiting for a visa that would give him legal permanent residency. His application for a law license is being weighed by the court because his case is unprecedented in the state, the bar committee said.

This is why america is the laughingstock of the world. What other country allows foreigners to BREAK THE LAW by invading their country and then allows them to openly admit their crime and still practice law???
 
Attorneys for the Committee of Bar Examiners argued that while Congress has explicit authority to regulate immigration it has "no clear and manifest purpose" in overseeing attorney admissions. That power in California resides with the state Supreme Court, the attorneys said.

If Garcia had been convicted of a felony, the Bar would have turned him down his application. However, enter the US illegally for the for first time is a misdemeanor not a felony. Also, the courts have not taken any legal action against Garcia, so how can the bar association deny his application?

Simple, he is not a legal immigrant. Doesn't take a university bought brainwashing to figure that one out.

No, not unless the bar association rules and state law forbids the licensing of undocumented immigrants.

Entering the country illegally is a crime, a misdemeanor if the immigrant attempts to enter or obtains entry to the United States by a willfully false or misleading representation or the willful concealment of a material fact. Since Garcia was brought to this country when he was 17 months old he certainly would not be found guilty of any crime. He would only be guilty of the civil offense of being in this country without documentation, it the court so ruled. However, since no court has ruled on this, he is guilty of nothing.

Yes, a few dull witted Florida lawmakers wanted to eliminate the Bar's role in admitting attorneys, and let the legislature decide. That went over like a lead balloon. If he has applied for a visa, no problem. If not granted one, he loses the right to practice. This is matter of separation of powers, not 'an illegal' sneaking over the line of hate. There soon will be no Statue of Liberty, those fixated on 'illegals' will tear it down. The call for criminal punishment for those who hire aliens, sometimes finance the entry, and pay wages below the legal minimum remains non existent.
 
California sliding into the ocean can't come soon enough.

notwithstanding racist spew:

and aside from the fact that the young man completed college, went to law school and passed the california bar exam (arguably the hardest in the country along with new york)

Actually, the Bar is making no such decision, those not yet issued Visas may apply for admission and be processed(.)

Doesn't matter what he accomplished, he is illegally in this country. If he can accomplish that, why can't he get himself legal? Libtards are so stupid.

Do the rules state you must have your papers to be barred?

If not - then what's the problem?

NO CITENSHIP, NO AMERICAN RIGHTS!

Rights of Illegal Immigrants

You have the right to a speedy and just deportation under due process of law

Immigrants can be classified as illegal for one of three reasons: entering without authorization or inspection, staying beyond the authorized period after legal entry, or violating the terms of legal entry.

Section 1325 in Title 8 of the United States Code, "Improper entry of alien", provides for a fine, imprisonment, or both for any immigrant who:

Enters or attempts to enter the United States at any time or place other than as designated by immigration agents, or

eludes examination or inspection by immigration agents, or

attempts to enter or obtains entry to the United States by a willfully false or misleading representation or the willful concealment of a material fact.
 
Did he steal someone's identity? Does he have a fraudulent social security card, fake driver's license or any other fake, forged, fraudulent or stolen documentation?

There are a number of crimes associated with, but indpendent of, illegal entry.
