注:我是把材料寄到New York State Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Third Department的,所以我的相关咨询都是问他们的。每个DEPARTMENT可能会不同,每年也可能政策变动,所以下面说到的一些东西仅供参考,保险的话要打电话再问一下他们。他们电话挺好打通的,一般不占线。
一共需要有以下几个东西:
1. copy of the letter or notice of certification from the State Board of Law Examiners
2. application for admission questionnaire
3. affidavits of good moral character 1
4. affidavits of good moral character 2
5. employment affidavits or letters
6. certificates of good standing and grievance letters from jurisdictions in which you have been admitted to practice
7. any other papers you desire to submit
8. form certificate from your law school -国内法学院
9. form certificate from your law school -国外法学院
关于这个employment,我有特地咨询过third department如果是internship算不算,他们说“If the internship was law-related, you should list it and submit an employment affidavit for it. ”
另外,很多表格上有这句话“ If affidavit is sworn to outside the United states, its commonwealths, territories, or possessions, attach certificate of attesting officer’s authority" 。我有问过third department这是什么意思,他们回答 “The notarization should be accompanied by a stamp, seal or other documentation of the notary's authority or license. ”所以总之就是有个章就行,很容易满足。
