- Actually, certified legal interns, i.e., law students who have completed 2/3 of
- law school, may represent clients in Ohio, so long as they comply with Supreme
- Court Rules. Basically, an attorney, usu. the student's prof., must sit at the
- table with the student.

- look forward to doing criminal defense.
