IN RE: COMMITTEE ON BAR ADMISSIONS CFN-360459
BAR ADMISSIONS PROCEEDING
CRICHTON, J., dissents in part and assigns reasons:
In my view, the concerns of the Committee on Bar Admissions regarding petitioner's infraction (minor in possession of alcohol while tailgating at an LSU football game) and his DWI conviction (arising out of an offense while an undergraduate) are unwarranted in light of the fact that he successfully completed an intensive treatment program at Palmetto Addiction Recovery Center. Accordingly, I would grant the petitioner unconditional admission to the practice of law in Louisiana.
