Practice question
A student with Level 2 certification is assigned to prepare pleadings in an appealed case under a supervising lawyer. Is that work within Section 4’s Level 2 practice areas?
- No, because appeals are excluded from the rule altogether
- Only if the student has already been admitted to the Bar
- Only if the appeal is automatically meritorious
- No, because only oral advocacy can be student work
- Yes; preparation of pleadings in appealed cases is expressly listed
