In re COMMITTEE ON BAR ADMISSION CFN–1986.
Opinion
After reviewing the evidence and considering the law, we conclude petitioner is eligible to be conditionally admitted to the practice of law in Louisiana, subject to a probationary period of one year. Should petitioner commit any misconduct during the period of probation, her conditional right to practice may be terminated or she may be subjected to other discipline pursuant to the Rules for Lawyer Disciplinary Enforcement.
CONDITIONAL ADMISSION GRANTED.

CLARK, J. dissents and assigns reasons.
GUIDRY, J., dissents.
I dissent from the majority's action granting conditional admission to the practice of law. I would remand the matter to the Committee on Bar Admissions Panel on Character and Fitness for an investigation into the petitioner's qualifications, and would further appoint a commissioner to take evidence and report to this court as to whether the petitioner has the appropriate character and fitness to be admitted.
CLARK, J., dissenting.
I dissent and would appoint a commissioner.
