Here we have a young man who has been denied admission to the NJ Bar by the Supreme Court. (This would be by the Supreme Court of NJ in an opinion written by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court in NJ, ok ltl?)
Quoting:
A three-lawyer committee said, "It was crystal clear . . . that Mr. Sanders believes himself to be absolutely morally justified in breaking the law." The panel said it viewed him as one who "detaches himself from responsibility to obey the law by endeavoring to distinguish the morality of the law from its legality."
...
Sanders, 29, admitted to traveling to Cuba three times through Mexico, Canada and the Bahamas; deceiving U.S. Customs officials about the visits on re-entry to the country; lying to customs agents about trying to smuggle Cuban cigars into the United States and blowing off a query by the U.S. Treasury Department seeking information about his first visit. That last move led to a $10,000 department fine for ignoring the query, a fine Sanders acknowledged he made no effort to pay.
....
But the smuggled cigars proved to be Sanders' undoing. The Committee on Character, the OAE brief and subsequent oral argument focused not so much on the trips and the cigars but on Sanders' lying about them. The committee said he offered no "good or political explanation" for trying to bring them back.
Insert Cigar joke here.
