The proposed sale of the Charleston School of Law to the venture capital-backed InfiLaw chain of law schools remains in limbo.

The American Bar Association’s Council of the Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar on Dec. 6 deferred action on InfiLaw’s request for its acquiescence in the sale. During its two-day meeting in Puerto Rico, the council decided that InfiLaw must first win the blessing of state regulators.
