In re Application of Wylie.
    [Cite as In re Application of Wylie (2000), 89 Ohio St.3d 471.]
    (No. 00-422
    Submitted May 10, 2000
    Decided August 16, 2000.)
    
      
      John H. Burlew, for respondent.
    
      Dennis A. Liggett, for relator.
   Per Curiam.

Gov.Bar R. I(11)(D)(1) requires that persons seeking admission to the bar in Ohio prove, by clear and convincing evidence, that they possess the “requisite character, fitness, and moral qualifications for admission to the practice of law.” In this case, applicant failed to meet that burden.

We adopt the findings and recommendation of the board. Applicant is hereby disapproved. However, applicant may submit a new application to register as a candidate for admission to the bar and an application to take the bar examination in July 2001.

Judgment accordingly.

Moyer, C.J., Douglas, Resnick, F.E. Sweeney, Pfeifer, Cook and Lundberg Stratton, JJ., concur.
