Re: Adoption of New Rule 1:42 (“Continuing Legal Education”); Deletion of Rule 1:26 (“Skills and Methods Course”); Appointment of CLE Board; Amendments to Administrative Determinations by the Supreme Court on the Report and Recommendations of the Ad Hoc Committee on Continuing Legal Education

The Supreme Court has adopted the attached new Rule 1:42, “Continuing Legal Education,” and has deleted Rule 1:26, “Skills and Methods Course,” both effective immediately. The Court also has appointed the Board on Continuing Legal Education provided for in the new rule. Rule 1:42 as adopted contains some changes from the proposal published on October 5, 2009, so as to clarify that the requirements of the rule apply to all licensed attorneys, not only those with plenary licenses (Rule 1:42-1), and to provide detail on the composition of the Board on Continuing Legal Education (Rule 1:42-2(a)). The Supreme Court also has amended portions of its October 5, 2009 Administrative Determinations on the Report and Recommendations of the Ad Hoc Committee on Continuing Legal Education; those revisions are set forth in the attached Amended Administrative Determinations document.

Mark Neary, Esq.
Clerk of the Supreme Court
