Passed the Bar But Won't Be Admitted in NY Or Michigan

|
Four years ago a bar exam test taker, "Anonymous," kept writing after the time limit and was caught.  Anonymous passed both the Michigan and New York bar exams in July 2005, but Michigan denied admission finding Anonymous engaged in misconduct by writing past the time limit.  Anonymous renewed the Michigan application in 2008.  It is pending.  New York followed Michigan's lead and denied admission as well.  A New York appeals court decided on March 19 not to admit Anonymous pending the Michigan decision.  Links to the NY decision from the ABA Journal.
