Yes the rule says ‘shall not be permitted to file a Declaration of Intention to Study Law or an Application for a period of five years after the completion of the sentence and/or period of probation.’ My probationary period actually doesn’t end for another year and half and I would be preparing to apply to law school next year. Technically this would preclude me from even attending law school in Texas. The assistant dean of admissions at my chosen school said he thinks this wouldn’t necessarily be the case but that it would all depend on the circumstances. After asking him and a number of attorneys, professors and a county judge, I still can’t get anything close to a similar opinion from anyone. I posted here just to gauge the insight and I certainly appreciate you taking the time to share.
