The
ABA Journal.com is reporting today that legislation allowing the California State Bar to levy fines for unauthorized practice of law has been proposed again after having been vetoed last year. According to the story, earlier this
month, the same legislative proposal "was quietly slipped into another
bill that had been stripped of its original content, which let it skip
the committee markup process just before an 11-day break for the
legislature, the
Sacramento Bee reports."
