Bar admission in North Dakota is controlled by the North Dakota Supreme Court, which acts through its Board of Law Examiners - the committee listed on the state court system's site under both "Committees and Boards" and the "Lawyers" menu. This page is an independent study guide for candidates preparing for that admission exam. It is not published by, endorsed by, or affiliated with the Supreme Court, the Board of Law Examiners, or the State Bar Association of North Dakota. The exam is a generalist licensing test rather than a specialty certification. The ND Bar case studies are 5 cases and about 3,061 words.
