Opinion
Delivered December 18, 1989
The Arkansas Continuing Legal Education Board has presented to this Court a motion to amend the Arkansas Rules for Minimum Continuing Legal Education, which were adopted by our Per Curiam Order dated March 6, 1989, and a motion to adopt proposed regulations to be implemented by the Board if approved by this Court. In our March 6 per curiam order, we directed the Board to develop regulations consistent with the Arkansas Rules for Minimum Continuing Legal Education and submit them to this Court for final approval.
Inasmuch as the Board has now presented to us proposed amendments to the Arkansas Rules for Minimum Continuing Legal Education, along with comprehensive regulations, we wish to solicit comment from members of the bench and the bar between this date and March 1, 1990. We hope to receive not only general remarks, but invite specific suggestions with respect to the Board's proposals and encourage recommendations as to any additional guidelines that might assist the Board in fulfilling its duties.
Copies of the proposed amendments and regulations may be obtained from the Supreme Court Clerk.
