Back in May, I mentioned the misguided Texas State Bar ethics opinion prohibiting anyone without a law degree from holding a position like "Chief Technology Officer" in a law firm.
The opinion appears to have caused more bucking than a bronco at a rodeo. Legal Technology News is reporting that 53 law firms have protested the decision, including 24 firms in the Am Law 100. The professional ethics committee responsible for the opinion plans to revisit it (lasso it?) next month.
