He was only disbarred in Arkansas. He could, theoretically, take the bar exam in some other state, one where a frog could pass that bar, as my lawyer daughter put it (I think she was describing either NY or NJ, based on her fiancee's experience in taking the bar in those two states. The are both licensed to practice in Texas, where the frog, and probably Billy Jeff, would have a bit of trouble passing the bar exam) But he won't. However I don't think legally one has to even be a lawyer to sit on the Surpeme Court. Fortunately you are probably correct and "Evita" will never be President, but if she were, I imagine all sorts of unprecidented things would happen, especially if the Dims also controlled the Senate at the same time.
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Former President Bill Clinton will contest Monday's Supreme Court order that suspended him from practicing law before the high court, his attorney said.
The Supreme Court gave Clinton 40 days to argue why he should not be permanently disbarred.
"This suspension is simply a consequence of the voluntary settlement entered into last January with the Arkansas bar. Pursuant to the Supreme Court's order, we will show cause why disbarment is not appropriate," said attorney David E. Kendall.
As is its custom, the Supreme Court offered no explanation for the order. Court observers said such suspensions nearly always lead to permanent disbarments.
In January, Clinton reached an agreement with independent counsel Robert Ray that suspended his Arkansas law license for five years and ordered the former president to pay $25,000 in fines to that state's bar officials. Clinton also gave up any claim of repayment of his legal fees in the matter.
