 | | Generally admission to the bar requires that the candidate graduate from an accredited law school, be certified as having the good moral character and fitness to practice law, and pass a state-administered bar examination which may consist of several parts. |
 | | In many states of the U.S., admission to the bar of a state does not entitle the admitted attorney to appear and plead before the appellate courts of the state. |
 | | Similarly, admission to a state bar does not entitle the admitted attorney to appear and plead before federal district courts, circuit courts (serving the respective state) or the United States Supreme Court; the attorney must separately apply to each court individually. |
