    September 11, 2017 VIA EMAIL AND PERSONAL DELIVERY The Honorable Tani G. Cantil-Sakauye, Chief Justice and Associate Justices SUPREME COURT OF CALIFORNIA 350 McAllister Street Room 1295 San Francisco, California 94902-4797 RE: The California Bar Exam – Adjustment to the Minimum Passing Score Dear Chief Justice and Associate Justices: The undersigned Deans of the California Accredited Law Schools (CALS) request leave to file this Letter Brief to ask the Court to exercise its inherent power to admit persons to practice law in California and to adjust the minimum passing score (cut score) of the California bar exam.1 Following comprehensive study and analysis of minimum competence, the CALS join with many other stakeholders and experts, including the State Bar of California, in supporting a change in the minimum passing score of the California Bar Exam to 1390, as the one score that represents the intersection of research data, norms, current practice, and policy. The CALS previously petitioned the Court on March 2, 2017 to request an adjustment to the minimum passing score from 1440 to 1350.2 In response, the Court expressed its concern that it “lacks a fully developed analysis with supporting evidence from which to conclude that 1440 or another cut score would be most appropriate for admission to the bar in California.”3 The Court directed the State Bar of California (State Bar) to conduct “a thorough and expedited investigation” that includes “a meaningful analysis of the current pass rate and information sufficient to determine whether protection of potential clients and the public is served by maintaining the current cut score.”4 1 California Rules of Court, Rules 9.3(a) and 9.6(a), as amended and effective on January 1, 2018.
