About this document
Legal Ethics Cases and Implications by Meme Duran is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The Supreme Court ruled that Republic Act No. 972, which reduced the passing bar exam grade to 70%, is unconstitutional. The Court has exclusive power to license and regulate the practice of law. Lowering the passing grade would qualify graduates who were inadequately prepared as shown by their exam results. While Congress can set minimum requirements, it is the Court that has ultimate authority over who may be licensed to practice law.
